Rear View Mirror Dangle Project
The other day, I was out to breakfast and saw that someone had a really pretty beaded rear view mirror beaded dangle. It got me thinking that I wanted to make one of those. I made a few sets of beads, but they didn't really speak to me. I had an idea to hang a large swarovski crystal on the end, but it didn't really match the beads I made. So then I just decided to do this:
The reason I did that was, 1. I love my Japanese charm and 2. I love bicone shaped beads right now and 3. I love that glass color!
Here's how I did it!
Gather your supplies:
Add your beads onto the beading wire, they way you want them!
Finish by adding a crimp bead, looping the beading wire through the end loop of the ornament hanger, and then crimping loop!
There you go - another beady thing to do with beads, but not jewelry!

Thank you for this inspiring blog! I used to make these with seaglass and can't believe I forgot all about them. I have beads I thought I didn't know what to do with...now I know better!
ReplyDeleteYears ago I had made one for my car. While hanging out at the dog park someone stole it off my rear view mirror via an open sunroof. Bummed me out. Love them!
