Beading technique - coraling


Okay, this coral-looking thing is not a complete beading project obviously. It’s a beading technique that I recently learned from the magazine Beads & Beyond. Of course, the technique is called none other than the coraling technique.
It is part of the pieces that make up a mermaid bracelet featured in the magazine, something that you may want to wear to the beach or to a pool party. You can see the picture of the bracelet below…

So I have just made two branches of coral with this technique so far, hahaha! Have not thought of what kind of accessories I want to make with this coraling technique yet.
Definitely won’t be one as in the magazine coz I don’t want to make something bulky and ‘feels’ like kinda heavy.
If you happened to have this copy of magazine, have you tried out the coraling beading technique? Have you created something with the technique?
I don’t know about you, it took me quite some time to understand the instructions. But once I’ve got it, it became very easy.
If you want to learn this coraling beading technique, I’m going to show a schematic diagram and the steps for it (based on the instructions given in Beads & Beyond magazine) in my next post. So stay tuned!
