Quick Project Steps

Prepare the Heart Form: Begin by removing the protective paper layer from the wooden heart form to reveal the surface for beading.
Start Beading: Thread your needle with about five feet of beading wire and secure a stop bead. Start by adding seed beads and your choice of Czech glass or crystal beads, creating loops through the holes of the heart form.
Create Patterns: Continue adding beads in various sizes to create a dense, frilly pattern around the heart. Use larger beads towards the top and smaller beads or crystals towards the bottom for a tapered effect.
Add a Bail: Once all beading is complete, create a bail by threading about 30 beads and looping them through the top center hole of the heart form to create a hanging loop.
