Let's get started:
1. We make curls with beads.
To do this, we take beads and soutache. We cut off 20 cm of each soutache.
We insert the fishing line into the needle and begin to sew the bead to the soutache.
We fasten it on one side and the other and form a kind of horseshoe. At the point where the two ends meet, we sew several times to securely connect the soutache cord. We definitely try to make all seams strictly in the middle of the cord, the entire appearance of the product depends on this. After finishing attaching the bead, we make a simple curl on one side.
We carefully fix it with additional stitches. We cut off the excess soutache and burn the ends. We additionally secure them with fishing line. Here's the wrong side.
Then we take the second bead and wrap it with soutache cord.
We bring the ends to the wrong side. Sew tightly and additionally fix the cord together.
We cut off the ends and burn them. Wrong side.
2. Decorate the inside of the earring.
We take cardboard and trace the resulting product with a pencil. We cut the workpiece 2 mm smaller than the drawing. We take leatherette and perform the same actions. When both pieces are ready, glue them together. Then we glue the entire resulting “pie” to the future product. Place everything under a press until completely dry.
3. Then we begin to sew the edge with beads.
We make a simple overcast stitch, between which we place the beads.
For neatness and neatness of the product, we place the steps evenly and with equal grip on the leatherette.
4. Sew on the earrings.
It should be located exactly in the middle of the product. This will prevent the earrings from tilting to one side. We firmly fix the earring back - with return stitches. We insert the needle into the product and tie a knot.
(Even if you haven’t run out of fishing line yet) Cut off the excess.
On a note! Tying a knot after securely attaching the earrings promotes strong attachment of the element and guarantees long and frequent use of the product in the future.
5. Finish sewing the edge of the earring.
We thread a new piece of fishing line and continue working. We complete the entire row and securely fasten the fishing line near the hook.
6. We make the second earring in the same way, but we form the curls in the other direction. This will create a right and left earring, distinctive from each other (Exactly what we need).
So our “Naughty Girl” earrings are ready, and in combination with the same brooch (Master - class on making the “Naughty Girl” brooch, you will find in the same category), they are simply exquisite and harmonious.
They are perfect for both young girls and older women. This is magnificent present for each of us. Wear it and give smiles to your loved ones!
