In part one of this series I showed how to design and create cute little scenes using silk ribbon, beads and simple embroidery stitches.
This is such a relaxing and fun pastime, I hope you give it a try.
In today’s video I will show how to take your embroidered scene and fit it into a bezel so you can wear it as a necklace or other jewelry.
We’ll cover:
- How to deal with round forms
- How to create an easy miter for a clean finish on square or rectangular shapes
- How I dealt with an usual style bezel frame.
- **As a bonus I’ll show you my very first piece of silk ribbon embroidery! (Be prepared to wince.)
In case you missed it, you’ll find part one here:
Tools and Materials:
