1. Gather Beads with Large Holes
So, first things first, raid your bead collection (or hit up your local craft store) for some beads with large holes.
Trust me, this is key because you want those beads to slip onto your plant's new shoots
2. Find a New Leaf Shoot
Now, let's play detective and hunt down the perfect candidate for our beading plant project.
Look for those fresh, new leaf shoots, they're like little blank canvases waiting for your artistic touch.
3. Slip on the Beads
Alright, time for the fun part – beading your plants!
Take your chosen shoot and delicately thread the bead or beads onto it.
Now, here's the deal – beading plants isn't a sprint, it's more like a leisurely stroll. It takes time for your plant to become fully bedazzled, but trust me, the result is worth it.
So, when you notice new shoots growing, grab a bead and thread it on.
