Beaded Crocheted Ornament
This ornament can be made for less than $5 using a Dollar Store foam
ornament, some Kreinik threads, pins, and beads. It is created so
quickly, you will have time to make several for hostess gifts, ornament
exchanges, and for your own tree.
Materials needed:
-
Foam ornament (we got ours at Dollar Tree)
- Kreinik Medium #16 Braid 002L Chromo Gold (a holographic thread)
- Size D/3-3.25mm crochet hook
- straight pins
- beads (glass seed beads, any other bead that with a hole that will fit your pin size)
Instructions:
-
Using the Medium #16 Braid in 002L, crochet a length long enough to
decorate your ornament. We did one simple chain stitch for the entire
length.
- Pick up a bead with your straight pin and push the bead all the way
to the head of the pin. Begin pinning your crocheted chain to the
ornament using the straight pins with the bead on it. Continue pinning
your chain as desired using your pins and beads.
Note about colors: Kreinik makes 250+ colors in Medium #16 Braid, so you
can customize your design by choosing your favorite colors, or your
school colors, team colors, etc.
