Beading

Hi my name is Ashleigh and I’m going to tell you about my favourite hobby beading. I have taking a lot of bead courses at Bead Co. and Beadles. Most of them have been with my cousin because she loves beading as much as me.  

There are a lot of great things you can do with beads, such as, making earring, necklaces, bookmarks, rings and bead bags. Bead bags are my favourite things to make.

Here are some of the thing you will need to start beading:

  • A selection of bead
  • Bead string
  • Pliers
  • Head pins
  • Eye pins
  • Wire
  • Crimps
  • Earring hooks
  • And lots of creativity 

You can get most of this stuff from Spotlight and craft shops.  

If you would like to know more on beading please comment on my post. A couple of places where I buy my beading things are linked below.

    Hi, I was just checking out your blog, and this post really caught my eye. It’s very interesting and I would of never thought of beading as a hobby. Sounds like great fun but also complicated. I go to Te Awamutu Intermediate and am in the accelerate class. You might of seen my teachers (Mrs Crowe) blog. From Alex
