Bringing another creative piece your way. This time, its beading. I wanna show you steps to making your bead bags
Before we start, grab your scissor, plastic-like rope for beading, and finally your sets of beads. You can choose to use any type of bead. The one you will be seeing is what I chose.
Now this is how we start. Insert the beads in the plastic rope and knit it in a carpet-like form. Make it as long as you want the size of your bag to be
Here! Make it bigger. Knit and knit until you get the shape and size you need.
I will advice you make it bigger as what you are seeing. But it doesn't matter, all you need is to knit it to the size you need, and ofcos the size if your bag depends on the quantity of beads you have.
Now we are done with foursquare sides of the bag. Let's make the hand. What you can call bag handle. This is where you will held your bag. Be calm its not difficult, all you need to do is to follow the same procedure as when you started knitting the sides of the bag
But this time you will make it longer in length rather than bigger in size. Depending on the length you want it
Here is the length I want mine to be, I rather prefer a longer bag hand or handle
Now let's do some magic to the bag, by giving it an encrypted spellings..I choose to use the word;
L.O.R.D
And I choose to spell the letters with two different colours of bead, which is orange and purple colour
Here after knitting and spelling out your encryption on the bead bag, you knit the bag cover with the knob unto the bag to help hold the bag cover
Then we join the bag handle or hand unto the body of the bag, take time so you don't make mistakes of joining it in the wrong place
See the joining. This is the back of the bag, you can style your bag in any manner and any design you want it. I prefer a simple design with mine
This is the front of the bag, I wanna insert those books into my ready bead bag
Now I have inserted the books, I can as well cover the bag if I want to. I made mine smaller; that is the size that could contain only a book and a bible. This is because it is solely for church use
And we are done with making our bead bag...This is the front side of the bag
Here is the back side of the bag.
How amazing to knit my bead bag, I thought of sharing it here too
It was quite stressful and time consuming but it was worth it and am so glad
I create..!
