How To Use A Beading Board

Jessica Rose from the London Jewellery School shows you how to use a beading board, a great way to try out necklace and bracelet designs.

Top Tips

  • Arrange the beads in the different pockets according to size and shape, to work out what kinds you have available and what kinds of necklaces and bracelets you can make.
  • You can lay the beads out in the shape or pattern you'd like before threading it to check if it looks right or if you have enough beads for that design.
  • For multi-strand necklaces, use the additional sections to compare colours, shapes and design.
