June 2011 Beaded Watermelon Project.

You can find a variety of Free Arts and Craft Project here, including beading tutorials and other project. This month's project is a 3D beaded watermelon, made with Japanese glass seed beads using right angle weave Beading technique. Great as earrings, pendant or simply as a charm.

The pictorials are illustrated with spaces between beads for a clearer direction, in the actual beading, there should be no spaces.

What you need:

1)   Glass seed beads size 11/0 (red, green, white and black)

Always Remember to pull tight on EVERY STEP.
