"P" Is For......

avatar

Hello there! 😊 Welcome back to our little adventure!

I wanted to put a hold on my beading Alphabet for a while; I have a lot of earring projects lined up that are very demanding for my time. But I won't for a few reasons. One, I haven't beaded any letters for my son in over a week, and he is kind of bored with the old ones. I miss his excitement each time he sees a new beaded alphabet.

Second, I just got some beautiful beads in different colors that I simply cannot wait to work with and show you guys. And lastly, I have someone I want to shout out to. If I'm to count those people who have been great blessings to me on this platform, I will count her twice. We crossed paths a while back, and we still managed to find each other interesting until now.

She is amazing and a hardworking Hiver; her commitment and dedication inspired me, and for that, I'm letting you know she is awesome. But before I tell you who she is, you should already know the drill by now. Hehe; why don't we bead her this beautiful 'P'?

Below are the four materials I will be using;

Size 4 pearl beads, scissors,0.25 fishline, and a measuring tape.

Step-by-step process;

Step 1:

I wanted to make six rings of beads, so I started by measuring a 120 cm fishline. I put four beads on it, then crossed both fishlines with the fourth bead.

Step 2:
I put one bead to my left fishline and one bead to the right fishline then crossed both lines with one bead.

Step 3:
I continue to repeat step 2 above until I have six rings of beads.

Step 4:
I put three beads to the left fishline then crossed both lines with the third bead. This made the line turn, so I could make the head of the 'P'

Step 5:
I put one bead to the left, one bead to the right fishline then crossed both lines with one bead

Step 10:
I put one bead to the left fishline, and one bead to the right fishline and then crossed both lines with one bead.

Step 11:
I put one bead to the left fishline and one bead to cross both lines

IMG_20241122_063236_464.jpg

Step 12:
I put one bead to the left fishline and one bead to the right fishline and here I passed the two fishlines through the fourth bead on the tail of the 'P'
I simply tied the knots and that gives me half part of the 'P'.
Note I do not cut off the excess fishlines because I will be using them later. This is something I just learned how to do, hehe.

Step 13:
I repeated steps 1 to 12 above to make the other half of the 'P'

Look at that, lovely huh?

Step 14:
I simply brought the two half parts of the 'P' and joined them together by continuously passing the two fishlines with one bead, using the excess fishlines above.

And here we have our beautiful letter 'P'
Dear @princessbusayo this one is specially made for you and I hope you like it😍

Any great beaded alphabet craft. They could also work great as pendants for name initials. Nice work

Yes, they can be used for pendants and keychains as well; I'm just making these for my son's educational materials.

Thank you very much.

You know, he was taking a nap when I finished the P. I just left it on that white cloth I used in taking the picture.

He later woke up; immediately he sighted it, he shouted Mama a. I'm just glad I can bring happiness to his face.

Thank you so much Princess, Adeiza hive Aunty 🥰.

As for Nkem, she is next on my list hehe, our supper hive woman.

My list is very long, too, so we shall treat it one after another.

Hehe, thank you very much Sis🥰

Princess is amazing 😍

So far, I have made 9 alphabets; I still have a long way to go, hehe.

He loved them, and it's helping him to learn.

But he kept losing the alphabets I made with the small beads. I won't be using those small beads anymore.

Sis, This is so cute, and it's nice to see you dedicated it to a special hiver, I've come across Princess I think in dreemport. This is also a fun way to teach children how to Identify letters, you're really doing well as a mom. Keep up the good work!

Oh and please make one for Ms @thekitttgirl, my favorite hiver hehe 🙂

Thank you so much Marilyn, I thought of a creative way to make his learning alphabets fun and engaging that was when I came up with this idea.

Princess is a lovely 😍 Hiver. And Ms Thekittygirl is a wonderful Hiver as well, I will let her know when I bead M.
