Beadwork - Five Fun Christmas Patterns: Easy, Nice Looking And Appealing

by Daniel Turbin

Christmas is the season of fun, and if you're a fan of beading and bead craft, then you can use your passion for the hobby to fuel a whole new look for your house this holiday season with a collection of free beadwork! If you're looking for fun Christmas beading ideas to add to the festive look to your home this December 25, then keep reading and we will outline five Christmas projects you can try!

1 - Candy Canes - Simple and attractive as beadwork go, you don't require much in the way of supplies to make these, and the designs are child-friendly to boot! The good news is that with even a modest stock of supplies, you have probably got everything you need to make many of these with supplies on hand, and they make fantastic decorations for your Christmas tree!

2 - Christmas Trees - Little miniature trees can be made quickly and effortlessly, with or without "decorations" (you could use multi-colored glass beads sewn around the tree design in different locations for a beautiful effect!). Another child-friendly design that comes together fairly quickly!

3 - Wreaths - Much like the tree design, above, but a bit more complicated, and as such, perhaps not as "child friendly" (as they take slightly longer to execute and see the results of your efforts, smaller children might get frustrated before they're finished). Still, it's a fantastic little project that looks attractive when completed! Purchase a few shades of green seed beads to make shadow and texture in your pieces, and highlight with red bits of holly.

4 - Angels - A moderately more tricky piece (and again, something that childs may not have the patience for), the easiest patterns to work with display angels in profile. Buy different shades of white, silver, and gray to create a dimensional effect in your pieces. These look magnificent on the tree!

5 - Snowflakes - Of all the beading ideas stated here, the snowflake pattern is the toughest one to get right. This is absolutely not a pattern that young children could help with, as these can get fairly complicated. They make among the most lovely and striking decorations on the tree, however, and if you've got the skill level and patience for it, you will be well rewarded for your hard work! Executing one pattern well is (or can be) a somewhat daunting task, but if you are feeling specially adventurous, you can try making every snowflake on your tree unique! It's a tall order, but can certainly be done, just be ready to dedicate quite lots of time to the task!

As you can see from just the 5 beadwork above, there are all kinds of fun holiday beading projects you can sink your teeth into, and this list only barely scratches the surface!
