Description

I made these for my friend for Christmas. I think they turned out really well and they kind of work if you squint through them.


  1. Step 1

    Step 1

    Take a square pegboard and with white hama beads, make the outline of the glasses. The glasses are 22 beads wide and 8 deep.


  2. Step 2

    Step 2

    Place another row of white beads on the inside and fill in the middle bridge of the glasses, which should be 5 wide.


  3. Step 3

    Step 3

    Fill in the right square with translucent green beads.



  4. Step 4

    Step 4

    Finally, fill in the right square with translucent red beads.


  5. Step 5

    Step 5

    Cover the design with wax paper and carefully iron on a low heat until all the beads stick together.


  6. Step 6

    Step 6

    Leave to cool and remove from the pegboard.



  7. Step 7

    Step 7

    Cut a long length of necklace chain - long enough so that when you have the glasses around your neck you can bring them up to your eyes.


  8. Step 8

    Step 8

    Pierce through the middle of the beads at the top left and right hand corners and slip through jump rings. Slip on the each side of the chain and close.
