Materials
White and yellow seed beads 10/0
Green beads 6 mm
nylon fish string

String 5 white beads to the center of the string, join them into a circle (photo1), then work around this circle.

The main rule – string a new group of beads always on the string from the right side, the string from the left side goes first to beads from the previous round (to which one you can see on the photos) and then to the last bead from a new group.

Abbreviation in description:
w - for white beads,
G - for green beads
(…) x 3 times - means repeat steps in brackets 3 times

First round:
1 step: G w G w G (photo 2 and 3)
2 step: (w G w G) x 3 times (photo 4 and 5)
Last (join) step: w G w (photo 6 and 7)



Second round:
1 step: 3w (photo 8 and 9)
(2 step: G w G w; 3 step: 2w) x 4 times (photo 10, 11 and 12)
Last step: G w G (photo 13)







Third round:
1 step: w G w (photo 14)
(2 step: 3w; 3 step: G w) x 4 times (photo 15 and 16)
Last step: 2w (photo 17 and 18)
You can put a big bead in the middle of your beaded bead (but it’s not necessary)





Top
1 step: G w G (photo 19)
(2 step: w G) x 3 times (photo 20)
3 step: w (photo 21)
Join 5 white beads on the top with the string (photo 22).
Add 1 yellow bead to the every circle with white beads (photo 23 and 24).
You can leave the top and the bottom of your beaded bead without yellow beads and add to this place a loop and fringes.
