WRAPPED BEADS GARLAND
Cut 1/4 yard of fabric in half to create two 4 1/2×36-inch strips. With right sides together, hot-glue strips together ½ inch from one short edge; let dry.
Unfold and finger-press seam open to create one long strip. To make a fabric tube, fold the strip in half lengthwise with right sides together and hot-glue long edges together; let dry. Clip a safety pin to one end. Use the pin to turn tube right side out.
Thread needle with golden twine. Feed a bead into the fabric tube, dab hot glue in bead hole and, using a bamboo skewer, tuck the fabric end into the hole. Thread the needle through the bead, leaving a 6-inch twine tail. Poke the needle out through the fabric close to the other side of the bead; wrap twine tightly around the tube three times to cinch the fabric. Slip the needle through the looped twine to create a knot.
Repeat with beads to the end of the tube, leaving a twine tail. Tuck and glue fabric end into last bead hole. Tie each twine end into a hanging loop.
