Ducks symbolize happiness, playfulness, and good fortune in many cultures. Plus, their bright colors and distinctive shape lend themselves perfectly to bead art.

This delightful craft project is surprisingly simple and fun for all ages, and makes a charming accessory you'll love to show off, using a little bit of cord and pony beads. It is perfect for animal lovers and it makes a great summer camp craft or school team mascot.

2. Begin weaving the beads onto the cord following the pattern at the top of the page. You can click on the image for a larger, better resolution photo.
3. After finishing the pattern tie a double knot in the cords at the bottom and apply tacky glue to secure.
4. Three or four beads can be strung onto the end of each cord as a finishing touch (This is optional and not included in the bead count in your material list.)
5. Weave your wire or pipe cleaner through your beaded ducky keychain to make it stiffer and hold it's shape.
(Seed beads or E beads can be used in place of pony beads to create smaller characters.)
