My mom taught me how to make these, and I taught my fiancé. We made these for a Christmas gifts about 20 years ago great video
Wonderful
I’m going to try to make one of these for each family group. What a great Christmas present idea! Thank you!
Thanks Jana! Can't wait to see how they come out!
What a fabulous tutorial, simple for a beginner like myself, clear verbal instructions, I will definitely be making this the first pattern I try, thanks xx
Thanks Bev!
Thank you for this wonderful tutorial. I just created my first netted ornament cover, thanks to you, and I am afraid it has become my latest obsession! So many possibilities...different colours and finishes of baubles, different colours and finishes of beads, different ending crystals...so many variations! Thank you!!🙂
Wonderful! You are so welcome Wendy 😍 Show us what you make! We'd love to see them. You can post pictures on our Facebook page!
I made one of these this evening and it was so easy and relatively quick as far as bead weaving goes! I still have time to make several before the holiday is over. It’s just beautiful! I have lots of ideas and can’t wait to try embellishing with fringe or closing the bottom with elastic. I have 2 cats and a child and I have already lost 2 ornaments this year and I just got our tree up so the ability to move the cover to another ball is just wonderful! Thank you for sharing your tutorial! 😍
Wow that's so great to hear! Glad you like it!
Lovely project I'm already thinking of Christmas 2019!
Absolutely, Fiona!! Get started NOW! ;-)

Thanks Karen!
I am having a problem finding the amounts, sizes and color of beads. I would like to make sure I have the right materials before I get started. Also the size of the ornament for this design. Thank you for sharing. It's beautiful 😍
Hi Cathi! This is one of our older videos and unfortunately we don't have all those details available anymore. However we do plan to offer an updated version soon! Stay tuned!
Beautiful !!! thanks for sharing
You are so welcome
Thank you for share, you explain Easy and simple! Great job! Greets from México
Thanks Elsa!
I love the simplicity of this design. So many beaded ornaments I've seen on Pinterest are super busy and over the top. This has just enough bling so the trees light will make it sparkle without losing the design (to the eye) . TFS!
TY!
Wow, faster way to do netting compared to other patterns I have seen. Great video, thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Beautiful.
Thank you! Cheers!
I love this project, making my second as I type.. thanks for posting

Beautifully clear instructions! Thank you so much! I had no idea how to do the netting coming from a crochet background rather than a beading one. Clear instruction is key for learning a new skill and yours are crystal clear. Thank you!
Thanks so much for watching! 💖
Easy to follow, Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
This is so simply elegant looking! And I'm definitely using plastic!
Wonderful!
Excellent tutorial.
Thank you Maria! 😊
FYI, I was watching your video. However the sound quality is strange. It sounds like your videoing this tutorial right beside an old wringer washing machine with out the lid closed or perhaps a wind machine to a wind machine making the sound of the wind & water with ocean winds, or l like your right beside an old fashioned wringer washing machine. you mentioned isn’t as annoying as the worshing sound throughout the video. I will stop, and come back to this tutorial to see if it is a problem on my end,'¡"" that helps.
I’m known by family & close friends to make & bead wedding garters.
Last Nov. we were in Texas & visited a Christmas store that had some unique bicone beaded ice-make my own version of beaded ice- cycles. I made the first ones for myself to see how they would look.
I was so happy with the results. It reminded me of having your tree draped with that old silver tensile we used in my youth, but without the mess or tangling & mess of that plastic that you couldn’t get it off or would stick to your clothes or carpeting because of the static electricity.
round beads.
In my pictures of our tree last Christmas, appeared to be full of light even without the lights on. Even the photos almost give you the illusion of leacycles the my tree was so festive
the lights
yearcould look like & I became a believer cycles out of beads of them mak R
On Tuesday I got a chance to see a dear friend who now lives in FL. She suggested I start making beaded ornaments for the seasons.
I had never considered doing this before, however, I have such a gnnñjmmyhmthis is the fitdv
Who's watching in 2020? Timeless project! Thanks!
Thank you so much! 🙏😍
Excellent instruction, thanks a million. This is simple and pretty 🎄 2022.
Glad it was helpful!
ooooo, another beautiful project for my "to try" list!! Thank you so much for sharing this fun idea for Christmas.
Sue Earl Glad you’re liking my videos Sue!
@@leahwyckoff3402 Hi Leah-just wanted to let you know, I beaded this ornament cover-per your video and instructions,it worked up very easily and turned out really pretty. I used 4mm firepolish beads in place of the crystals, they worked very well. My only problem?? The bulb I intended it for was waaaaayyy too big-my bad!! Now, I'm in search for some smaller ornaments.
luv this!
Thanks for watching!
Thank you for this tutorial! I’ll be making many! Happy Holidays😊
Happy to hear, Mary!! Feel free to send us any pictures - we'd love to see! :-)
I tried this last year at the way it was explain to me was awful thank you so much for the way that you describe this and show me how to do it I’m gonna have a lot of fun you’re very talented lady thank you
Glad it helped!
Muchas Gracias y Bendiciones en Popayán Colombia
Btw, the little plastic thing that hold thread on spool is perfect for placing the bulb on while working. Just put a piece of napkin over it to keep it from sliding.
Great tip!
Thank you for the birthday tutorial. I was wondering how many crystals you would need altogether
For the exact size that we're making here, that will be 55 bicones.
Like your cladagh ring☘️
Thank you! 😊
Love
Thanks Tanya! ✨
Hi. I like this it is easy. I am giving beading a try. I gave up quilting.
francine reider Glad you’re giving it a go, Francine!! Good luck! :-). -Leah
Im desperate to make one of those beaded bun covers…but can’t find a tutorial. This is the closest to what I was looking for that had clear video and instructions. Hopefully I can just do this and put some elastic thread on the bottom? We will see, thanks for the video 🥰
Let us know how it went! 💗
Interesting! All the other tutorials I've seen use horizontal rows of beads rather than vertical columns of beads. I'll have to try this way and see if I like it better. Thank you for the hint!
(If you break the ball, you just have to cut the very bottom row - the one connecting the picots - and redo it once the net is on a new ball.)
Thank for the tip Regina! Let us know how you make out ✨
@@EurekaCrystalBeads I loved it! Doing it vertically gives it a much different feel (more flowing rather than swag-y since the connecting beads are vertical rather than horizontal) and makes it much easier to figure out how many beads to add to take you all the way to the bottom. Thanks again!
Can you please tell me what size ball you use?
I would like dangles on the bottom of my net. How would I go about making long not reallong , but dangles hanging . I think it looks better with hanging dangles. Your video was so easy to understand and follow along with.
How do you add more string if you run out? Ty for a great tutorial
I was curious if you could show just one additions bead to embellish further... you mentioned a teardrop. Thank you!
Thanks for watching Michele! We will add it to our projects list!
👍👍👍
Thank you! Have fun with this one!
What do you do if you run out of thread and need to add more on? Can I use wire, to do this?
Very nice tutorial. How much is the size of ur ornament?
How do you know how many beads to put on your rows after you make your ri v around the neck? Sorry i am lost.
i have only tried one mini heart-and i managed to make it,that was my first expeience with seedbeads,i have no pther bead experience-do you think i can manage to make this ? i have the supplies? i will try
Give it a try! If you run into some issues, you can ask for advice from our beader's group on Facebook! Click here to join: facebook.com/groups/319085948930672
I would love to try this project. The link to the supply list seems to go to a different project. Do you have the supply list for this project? Thank you.
Hi there! This is an older project and many of the items are no longer available but we have a newer video using the same technique available here: ruclips.net/video/aerqQoMSpJ0/видео.html 💖
Do you have any videos explaining how to make your own patterns? How to measure and calculate the supplies you would need? Having a hard time finding any at all.
Hi there! Thanks for watching. Making patterns is a skill all on its own and it mostly takes a lot of trial and error which is not particularly suited to doing a video tutorial but we will see what we can do to make a video about it. We do have a video for how to use grid paper to make your own beadweaving patterns like for brick stitch and peyote which you can find here: ruclips.net/video/dXn5eZ_iJ3Y/видео.html
Very nice nd explanation also can we adopt the same design for earrings have tried that if uses please share the link nd thank u very much for sharing the easy nd nice design 👌👌👌👍👍👍🌹🌹🌹
Yes we're working on something in the future! Thanks for watching! 💖
I absolutely love this and followed you while doing one myself. It turned out gorgeous however, I should've laid it over the glass ornament before I began the webbing. My Bead count was correct but...it doesn't fit! All that work and it doesn't fit! I've tried it on half dozen ornament necks and all the necks are larger than my ring of 44!
Oh what a bummer Julie! This is certainly how we learn - myself included!! Hopefully it's not the same issue on additional ones you make :-)
Your such a good teacher! Approx how many beads do we use in total? I want to make sure I have enough before I start. I use gemstones rather than seed beads xx
Thank you for the compliment!! :-) Each row going around the bulb uses 11 crystals, so I had 5 rows total, so my example used in the video had 55 crystals. Hope that's helpful!
Thank you my dear, how many small beads do you need? X
Hmmm...... if my math is correct, I think about 836?? I no longer have the sample as we gave it away as a prize in a Facebook contest we ran...
My bulb is larger, do i just increase 44 by 4 until it fits? Will round beads like pearls work instead of bicones? 😀❤️
Hi Ree! It might take a little trial and error, but you'll increase the beads in your original beaded ring not by 44, but by 4 at a time. :-)
EurekaCrystalBeads lol thanks, thats what i meant..by 4 😀❤️
I know this is an old video and i hope you answer. my question is the neck on my ornament is a little bigger how many seed beads should i start out with?
Hi April! You would have to use trial and error to see how many you need to get around the neck. Good luck!
Hi. I know this is a year old now but I was wondering if there was formula needed to figure out how long your unit needed to be if you used different beads. I tried to make it following the basic idea but with different beads and it wouldn't lay correctly over the ball. It was bunching up like pants that are too tight LOL Plus my ball requires 50 seed beads to go all the way around the neck snugly. Thanks.
Hi there! I am not sure if there is a specific formula, it just took me some trial and error to figure out how to make it look good with the beads and ornament I had. We are going to have a new version of this tutorial coming hopefully soon! Thanks for watching!
Que tipo de hilo se utiliza??😉
Can you tell me if I can modify this pattern to make it wider at the crown and longer in length. Is there a certain amount that I need to adhere to in changing the dimensions? Please advise. I'm looking to do this netted stitch around a wine bottle. Please advise. Also, I'm subscribed to you and follow you. Can you do this bottle/wine bottle tutorial? Thanks for helping a newby continue to grow!
Putting this net on a bottle seems like such a great idea! When it comes to the width of that first circle, I'd suggest just putting more beads in a section, so you have 11 sections with 4 beads in each - try to make it 5 beads. If that's too much, only add a bead to some of the sections or put a smaller bead in each instead of the same size bead.
When it comes to length you can add length just by adding sections of seed beads + bicone; as long as in that first long string of beads you have an odd number of bicones, it will all add up, there will be just more of the net. Another way is to make the sections with seed beads longer by adding more beads to each section between bicones, but at some point this would stop looking so pretty.
Hope this helped!
@@EurekaCrystalBeads Thank you so very much for your reply. It was very helpful. If you create such a pattern, I'd love to make it under your guidance and knowledge! I've made several of your ornaments in the netting stitch! I love them, as do my family and friends! I don't sell them - to me that would ruin my enjoyment!
This is so nice to hear! And thanks so much for the idea, a netted bottle decoration sounds really great; now that I think about it, we could also try jar decoration -- add a small candle inside and it could be a Christmas/Halloween/winter lantern!
@@EurekaCrystalBeads I have a Yankee Candle that I used and melted the remaining wax in hot water. It has a lid and is clear glass, with no marks. I've been saving it to do such a beaded project. If you take on such a project, please let me know so I can follow along! You are very talented!
Hi, for this pattern what size is the ball. I've found 3.14" and 2.36"
Hi Cathy! The net is fairly flexible, so you don't need to follow specific measurements. If your ball looks roughly similar in size to the ones in the video, it will work! What's important is that the initial bead circle fits around the little metal/plastic thing on top.
@@EurekaCrystalBeads thank you so much for replying. I’ll let you know how I do
Can I use this pattern to sell finished ornaments?
Hi there! Yes you can do that but we ask you to credit us as the pattern designer when you list your items for sale. Thanks!
Bonito trabajo,pueden ponerlo en ESPAÑOL.
¡Hola! Lo siento, no hablamos español.
How many bicones?
I enjoy all of your projects, but it is difficult to follow as your camera is so far away from your work. Have you considered moving your camera closer instead of continuously moving the work up to the camera?
Thanks for the kind words and the feedback, Cynthia! We'll definitely experiment and see if we can adjust our equipment to make things easier to see

Talk slower please
Hi Dianne thanks for your feedback! You can change the speed of the playback in the options on the video if you need it to go a little slower. :)
