This issue we feature a delightful collection from Lucy Cromwell by Papermania, off ering all the cups of tea, cake and bunting you will need to set the scene. And just to prove how versatile this range is, you can also find it in our ‘Wedding Special’ feature and used to make a Father’s Day card in our ‘make a Father’s Day card’ challenge!

Step by Step
1
Thread each of 7 head pins with a seed bead, a leaf bead and another seed bead. Turn the end of the head pins to a loop.
2
Cut two strands of the black cord to measure approximately 60cm. Thread on a head pin to the centre of both strands and tie in a knot securing the head pin in place.
3
Tie a knot about 2.5cm from the first. Thread on a head pin and tie another knot about 1cm further up the strand.
4
Tie another knot 4cm from the last and thread on a headpin. Tie another knot 1cm further up. Repeat.
5
Repeat steps 3 and 4 for the other half of the necklace.
6
Trim the cords if needed so the necklace is your chosen length. Add the cord fastener to both ends of the cord to finish the necklace.
7
To make matching earrings, simply add another beaded headpin onto an earring wire.
