Pony Bead USA Pride Pin

Make and wear this Pony Bead USA Pride Pin on Veteran’s Day to show your support for our Veterans and active service men and women. If you are Canadian, change it to red and white beads and make it a little longer for Canada on Remberance Day.

Supplies

Safety Pins
Pony Beads: red, white and blue for the USA pin.
Letter Beads
18" Satin Cord

Instructions

Cut satin cord into 18" lengths. Fold in half and half hitch to a safety pin by placing the folded end down through the pin and drawing the cord ends down through the folded end loop. Diagram at below shows how a key ring will look with cord half hitched to it.

String the top bead onto both cords and push up to the safety pin. Lace the first row of three beads onto one cord. Lace the other cord through the same beads in reverse order. Pull both cords snugly. Continue with the next row of three beads until you have laced the five rows.

String the bottom bead onto both cords and push up to the last row. Tie off. Trim cords.
