✽ Steps
-
1. Measure out your string. You want to ensure that you'll have enough length to fit all of your beads, so err on the side of caution and cut a little longer than you think you'll need.
-
2. Tie string to keychain clip. Fold your string in half and loop it onto the keychain clip so that you have 2 equal length strings attached to it.
- 3. Choose your animal and start beading! Below are a variety of beaded critter tutorials, but feel free to look up your own or come up with your own pattern! Once you've got the methods of creating arms/legs/tails/etc. down you can draw an outline and fill in a bead plan to create your own pattern.
