✨ DIY Beaded Sun Catcher Curtain ☀️🌈 I get asked about these all the time, so here’s exactly how I made mine! All of the supplies I used are linked in my Amazon storefront under DIY Sun Catcher Supplies — link in bio! 1. I cut clear fishing line a few inches longer than I wanted each strand and tied it securely to each ring. *I used a double clinch knot, but any strong knot that works well with fishing line will work. 2. Start adding beads! I didn’t follow a pattern — I mixed different colors, sizes as I went. I scattered fun statement beads like flowers, butterflies, strawberries and mushrooms throughout and used lots of clear and iridescent beads to catch the sunlight. 3. I added crystal prisms to some of the end strands for extra rainbow reflections. 🌟 To attach a prism, slide a tube crimp bead onto the finished beaded fishing line and crimp. Add another crimp bead and then run the line through the hole in the prism and back through the crimp bead. Pull it snug (but not too tightly because you don’t want your strand to bend in a weird way if it’s all too tight) and squeeze the crimp closed with pliers. 4. For strands without a prism, once you reach your desired length, use a crimp bead underneath the last bead to secure everything in place, then trim the extra fishing line. 🌟 TIP: before you lift your strand up, make sure that your crimp is very secure - I would lightly tug on my last remaining beads just to make sure they were firmly in place by that crimp bead. 5. Repeat until your window is as full as you want it! Don’t overthink the pattern! I made every strand a little different, and the random mix of colors, shapes and sizes is what makes it so pretty when the sunlight hits. ✨🌈 #suncatcher #diysuncatcher #beadedcurtain #windowdecor #beads
