Make a Swarovski Crystal Heart, step-by-step

In this instructional video see how I use Swarovski crystal beads to make a 3-d "puffed" heart.

[@mycozysanctuary]

I'm so thankful that I finally found a decent video that I can understand. Thanks so much for posting it. I will be forever grateful.

[@suevanhamersveld44]

Very clear instructions. Mine turned out beautifully! I had made these in the past, but had forgotten how. Your video helped me tremendously!

[@Hellnogizmo]

I've been looking for this in a single video, and in english for years now.. Thank you so much. I fully understand the concept, I myself make the "beaded" beads often for necklaces and other jewelry fixtures. It's such a lovely piece when it's done, can't wait to do this! Thanks again!

[@dragonjoy1313]

THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! i can't tell you how long i have been looking for this! i took a class on how to do this piece and didn't make it enough times to remember how to do it! i LOVE YOU!!! thank you again so much! you have just changed my valentine's day plans! lol YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@melissaringnell7339]

Thank you so much!! This was very well explained and demonstrated. I saw a lady wear a necklace with a heart like this and I asked her about it and she made it seemed like it was a very difficult piece to make. I make jewelry as a hobby. I give it to family and friends so I really appreciated your video. This would make a beautiful gift!

[@annegreen2394]

This is absolutely beautiful, thank you so much. I am a big fan of Swarovski crystals and I am looking forward to making this heart very soon.

Thank you:The heart is just beautiful.I am able to follow your directions until I get up to that 5th. and 6th. bead then I am lost. I tried to do it about 10 times, no luck. I guess I am not just experienced enough???Please Help Nancy

[@aimeeupchurch237]

What color are these bicones?? They're stunning as is the project.

[@michelletschupp]

[@adelakunhorlarmeedai688]

[@angelbrokenwingmedicineflo6798]

lovely :)

[@emilybrobeck1411]

I'm still having a bit of a problem with it. Its difficult to see clearly in the video. Do you have any type of diagram or pic that could show it more clearly? thanks for responding

[@tinadujanovic4290]

Hello. What size bail? Awesome project! Thank you.

[@MTschupp]

+Tina Dujanovic I used a standard size bail. I am not sure the size, it is up to you on how big you would like it to be, I have used larger bails and it looks ok, I like the smaller ones, I usually get my bails from Michaels.

[@emilybrobeck1411]

could you give any more direction as far as which beads am i counting for the 5th and 6th bead and where to put the string through...it starts at the 15:43 mark on the video...it's going great til this point..thank you.

[@MTschupp]

+Emily Brobeck count the next bead where the bead thread is coming out of the next bead is 1, then the bead after that is 2, 3,4 then go through the 5th and 6th bead, then from that add 1 bead and cross through that bead to close the flap. I hope this helps. If not I will try to show a clearer picture

[@MTschupp]

+Emily Brobeck did you check out my new video? I think it is a more clear video. let me know if you can follow better

[@emilybrobeck1411]

+M Tschupp yes I watched it briefly and left you a comment there..I think it will really help...I'll let u know...thx

[@Alexa1850]

+M Tschupp ThAnk you very much. :) . [e-mail]

[@melissaringnell7339]

Is it possible to make the heart a little smaller?

[@MTschupp]

+Melissa Ringnell Yes, if you use 3 mm bicones it will be smaller. Good luck!

[@MTschupp]

+Melissa Ringnell I also tried with seed beads, but I like the 3 mm bicones much better. It really makes a great gift. I made one for my mother in law and she wears it all the time!

[@melissaringnell7339]

Thank you so very much!! I can't wait to start, they will make beautiful gifts! Thanks for sharing your wonderful talent!!

[@lusiashulz5307]

the beads are too sparkling it is hard to see clear ,

[@glittercatstudios]

+Lusia Shulz That's not because of the reflection or refraction of the beads. I noticed that she has the camera set to focus on the table, instead of closer to the camera. When she brings her hands closer to the lense to bead and show us what she's doing, that's when it becomes out of focus and hard to see. If she had set a shorter focal point, where her hands actually are (they're hardly ever on the actual table), it would have been crystal clear.

[@michelletschupp]

I updated the video, it's on my page, check it out. I think it is clearer :)

[@kristenblack3930]

where do you purchase your crystals?

[@MTschupp]

It depends, sometimes I get them from artbeads.com or firemountaingems or ebay. If I am really desperate, I go to Michaels.

[@kristenblack3930]

That's desperation indeed!

[@beverleymartin5547]

i give up!!!

[@michelletschupp]

I am glad you liked it :)

[@michelletschupp]

The color is called Vitrail

[@michelletschupp]

Let me know if this was easy to follow and let me know how yours turned out :)
