Thread in a rose coral pearl (4mm) and a golden rocaille, loop back in the pearl and in the textile base to hold it in place. I 17. Look back from the textile base from the side of the last pearl. Add a rose peach 4mm bicone and hold it to the base. I 18. Keeps sewing, alternating pearls and crystals around the rose, as shown within steps 15 and 16, until you surround the rose almost completely, placing a total of 12 elements. 19. Glue the smaller rose on the left of the pendant, in the empty space between the heart and the rose. Add a small crystal butterfly to the right of the pendant. Let the glue dry and thread the butterfly to the textile base for further steadiness. 20. Fill in the space between the roses, the butterfly and the luminous green hearts. There are no guidelines, the important thing is to fill in all the space and cover the white base support. Remove the excess material. 21. Glue the ultrasued to the back of the stiff stuff base, so that it can cover all the threads. Let it dry and cut up the two textile elements keeping as tight as possible to the pearl embroidery. Be careful not to chop of the needlework threads! 22. Now you need to adjust the edges of the pendant: prepare a thread with a small knot and stick it to the textile base from the tip of the heart. Add two rocailles, sew in both textures from the top down. 26| April-May | RitzyToo! | RitzyToo.com
