In this article you will learn how to make a cross, or crucifix, from beads.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Beads
  • Cord
  1. Step 1

    First cut your cord into two pieces, if you want an equal-armed cross make them equal, if you do not cut one proportionately shorter than the other. Remember to leave the pieces longer than you want the end item to be to allow for tying off the ends.

  2. Step 2

    Arrange your beads in front of you in the shape of a cross. Take the piece of your cord that you intend to be the vertical line and tie off one end. Now add the beads for this piece of cord, leave a small amount of room for the beads to slide then tie off the untied end. If you wish to use this as a necklace, tie a loop.

  3. Step 3

    Take the horizontal piece of cord and tie it in the center of the vertical piece. Now attach your beads to both ends of the string and knot. You now have made a crucifix from your beads.
