How to Make a Beaded Star

This tutorial shows you how to make a simple beaded star using three loops. Take it slow on the first one—the rhythm becomes clear as you go. Materials 25 Beads (same size works best) Beading thread or strong string Needle (optional, but helpful) Scissors Loop 1: The Centre Ring Thread 10 beads onto your string. Bring the needle/string back through the first bead to form a closed loop. Pull snug, but not tight. This is the centre of your star. Loop 2: Building the Star Points This loop creates the five star tips. From your current position, add 2 beads. Skip one bead space on the first loop. Pass the needle/string through the next bead on the centre ring. Repeat: Add 2 beads Skip one bead on the first loop Go through the next bead Continue all the way around. By the end of this loop, you will have added 10 beads total, forming five raised points. Loop 3: Finishing the Star Tips This final loop sharpens and defines the star shape. At the top of a star point, add 1 bead. String back through the first loop. Weave forward to the next star point (every two beads at the top). Add 1 bead at each star tip. Continue until all five star tips are completed. Finish Weave the string to the nearby star tip. Tie a small knot. Add extra string if you want to hand the star. Trim excess thread. Your beaded star is complete ✨ Tip: These stars are perfect for ornaments, garlands, gift wrapping, or jewelry accents.
