This week, Kelly from Off the Beaded Path shows how to make a Beaded 3-D Star.
It is unclear who the original inventor of the Beaded 3D Star is. I’ve not been able to find a true clear answer and it can become a heated debate. The truth of the matter is that two of the main pioneers of the Beaded 3D Star are Diane Fitzgerald and Jean Power.
I found some great resources for the 3D Stars. Here are some great links to check out. Some are things you can find completely for free, and some are things you would need to purchase:
Beaded Star Tutorial:
www.jeanpower.com/details/geo...
Diane Fitzgerald has a great pattern for one of the original beaded stars in her book Shaped Beadwork & Beyond. It was distributed by Lark and came out in 2013. It is no longer in print, but you should be able to find it used from an online retailer.

Yay! I did it. I made ONE. Several attempts of course. I did watch a couple other videos. And I did discover that using a double thread did NOT work for me. I strung on 4, then go back through two and make 2 knots to form the square. Then, proceed with the pattern. The connector beads was Very helpful in finishing the product and figuring out where the sections attach. I'm going to marvel at my accomplishment and then make more of them. Thank you, Kelly!!

I don’t know if it’s the southern charm but you explain this so well. Normally my craft path is based on what I see not what I can do and I learn a whole technique or even craft. We will see though when I do the pattern I want! Thank you for sharing your skills and patience ❤🙏

Thank you so much for this video. You were born to be a teacher. You have such a natural talent for teaching. I've watched many of your videos and always come away feeling like time well spent. I was reading instructions for the stars, but I'm left handed and instructions are almost always for right handed beading, and the images in the instructions I'm reading are also for right handed. Actually watching you bead, I can visualize flipping the work to a left hand version. You made it easy to follow. Thank you for your time even though it's not your favourite project. ;o)

Fantastic camera work, excellent colour choices, an interesting glance at the history of this shape, and referrals to other sets of instructions. Talk about generosity! Thank you for this clear, concise tutorial for a basic 3D puffy star!

Takes the mystery out of how these stars are made. Thanks Kelly for the super clear tutorial. Not sure if they are my cup of tea but may have to try one just to say I did it. Never know till you try. Looking forward to seeing Julianna. I remember years ago on Alleenes craft show when she first came out with the loom.✨🤗✨

I am just getting the beading bug. I am starting with the peyote star. I watched several different videos and I must say that your video using Diane Fitzgerald's pattern was great. It was fun to watch and your presentation was very easy to understand. I am subscribing to your channel and am looking forward to watching what is next.

@janhoffman2918 2 жыл бұрын

Thank you for making it easier. I made 4 different sizes this year for gifts. I found it’s easier and faster to use 6/0 beads and it makes a nice size star. My first one was made with delica beads and they turned out way too small for an ornament. I’m going to try 8/0s next and see how that works. Thanks again!

So happy to have found this! I just made a little warped square, and I am delighted with this first experiment, but …. wrong beads, wrong thread, and I don’t have a nifty little thread zapper. Yet. I’m off to fix these deficiencies.

Thank you for the video and the high definition. So much easier to see. I have Diane Fitzgerald s book and I cannot find this star nor the component that makes star. But to be honest I find her instructions difficult to understand and very, very few photos to help connect the dots. Thanks again. The video helps a lot.

I was wondering if you have a tutorial on the beaded kaleidocycle? I've looked everywhere for understandable instructions and can't find them anywhere. I was hoping to make a few for my fidget basket in my classroom this year.

am I right in thinking that when you put together parts 3 and 4 you don't go on to add the last lot of connector beads? otherwise you won't be able to zip them in place to the already zipped up 1 and 2?

These stars are addictive and while I adore Diane, I'm not a fan of her doubled thread method. She uses that in EVERYTHING! I have one of her books and have taken an in-person class with her. I've made several of these stars now. Doubled thread is absolutely unnecessary, IMO. They're tight enough without it. Thanks for the video!

Would the star be to floppy if used just a single thread? I am to scared to use a double because mistakes that will be made. Most of the time, when I try to retrace my steps, I end up stitching through an other part of the tread so it all gets stuck. I can not step back from that without cutting the thread to free the needle and pull out the mistake. Does that make sense? So could this be done with a thicker thread instead?

@offthebeadedpath Жыл бұрын

If you choose to use a single thread you will need to use a thicker thread to help hold the tension on the piece.

@sian2337 Жыл бұрын

I only use a single thread. I use Wildfire and Fireline 6lb. It works really well for me. The only issue I have with the black thread is the outer black layer rubs off and gets a bit fluffy the more you weave it in and out.
