You can easily make this gorgeous bead pendant out of elastic fabric FOE ribbon! Please click on the following link to see my full YouTube tutorial on how to put this all together:
Materials Needed:
* Elastic FOE Ribbon (I found mine on Etsy. I'll list the seller that I like below.)
*Assorted 6mm & 4mm Beads, Charms. (Or you can buy the bead dangles hanging up on a card at any craft store.)
*4mm Gold Plated Daisy Spacers
*20 or 21 Gauge Head Pins to make dangle beads.
*Strong Gold Plated Gauge Jump Rings..6mm and 8mm.
*Acrylic Bead Caps (Ebay or Etsy. I'll list my resource below.)
*7x4mm Rondelle. You can use 8mm too. I used gold Acrylic Metallic Rondelles, but you can use crystal or glass as well.
* Coffee Sip/Stirrers (I bought a box of 1,000 in black through Amazon. The color isn't really important as it will be covered with a bead cap.)
*Necklace Chain, Gold Plated.
*Low Temp. Hot Glue Gun
*Fabri-Tac OR E6000 Fabric Fusion
*My inspiration for the fabric beads came from Bev Carroll. Thank you Bev! Please check out her FB page at
