Today I'm going to show you how to make these beautiful bead encrusted projects. A bead
encrusted plaque with a beaded tassel and a bead encrusted picture frame. The bead encrusted
technique lets you take advantage of the wonderful array of glass beads available with absolutely
no need for sewing or stringing beads. These are the materials we'll be using for this
project. You'll need an assortment of beads. You want to choose beads that have different
textures. I have some small seed beads, some Bugle beads, and some larger beads. We'll
need a string of embroidery floss, a small piece of ribbon to attach to the back. We'll
need some air drying modeling clay, wooden bead, some spray paint, some fabric glue or
craft glue, a nice tacky glue style that's thick and dries fast, a wooden skewer, then
of course a beautiful picture of whatever you'd like to display.
