Crochet Hook  Size P

Two Yarn Threads Thick

Beads

15 18mm Silver Plated Metal Heart Beads

Sew on and glue

To sew on these beads use matching thread 

and a regular needle. I do not tie a knot yet, leave around 1 and 1half  to 2 inches of thread out rather than tieing a knot.  Keep the thread doubled.

Sew from right to left of the bead.  

*With your needle grab yarn one-fourth inch from the entrance. Then go through the bead going out

the exit and grab one-fourth of yarn then pull upwards on the needle and thread.  Work the thread under the bead.  Then bring the needle back to the entrance and repeat *   2X.

Now wrap the thread around the bead edges pull securely 2X.  Then make a small stitch just under the entrance 3X layer. Take your needle through the last loop to knot it.  This is to secure it.  You should see no threads.  Now use the jewel glue under the bead.  Use the back of your yarn needle to apply the glue then clean your needle. Put pressure onto the bead for a few seconds.  Move onto the next bead.

 12oz Popcorn Tin

Below - Jute Rope, Burlap, Scissors, and Hot Glue

Measure and Cut Out a Circle

Cover the Popcorn Info.

Hot Glue

Then Modpodge Around The Edges

With a Paintbrush. 

A Fabric Covered Button, An Old Coat Button.

Hot glue the jute onto the tin, starting at the bottom bringing it around

and around until you have two-fourths of the top of the tin still showing.

Cut a 3-inch wide strip of burlap.  The strip needs to be long enough 

to fit around the opening.  Cut the two edges at an angle but still glue then closed at the top.

Make sure to glue down the burlap very flat around the top so the lid will fit back on.

Cut another strip of burlap about 1 and 1/2 inch wide and long enough to tie into a knot, Glue on the

old coat button.  

Fit the lid over top and pound it around the edges with your fist.
