PROCEDURE

The procedure

Step 1:
Cut a circle of felt with a diameter of 4 cm. Cut off ca 1 m of thread and gradually begin to fill in the circle from the centre to the edge starting with the largest beads and seed beads. Sew on several beads at once, so that the decoration has greater volume (fig. nos. 2-6).

Step 2:
Once you have sewn the entire circle with beads and seed beads, sew the circle onto the headband using the remainder of the thread or a new thread (fig. no. 7).
