Tools and materials:

  • Black crop top

  • Embroidery thread and needle
  • Scissors
Beads on top

1. Pull the string through one spot on the top

Thread your embroidery needle. Then, pick a spot at random on the front of your crop top and pull the threaded needle through, from the inside outward.


2. Add beads

Next, string the beads or pearls onto the thread.


I’m switching off between round pearls and oblong pearls, but it’s up to you.


You can eyeball the amount for each strand and then tie a secure knot at the end so that it won’t come loose.

3. Repeat

Repeat these beaded strands all over the front of your crop top in random places. Use about the same number of beads per strand.
