Your scarves are very pretty.  Did you just thread some beads over the chenille fringe and then twist them?  Or did you just add a bead at the end (above the knot) after twisting?  I can't get the picture big enough to tell.  Another question, although not a weaving question, is about your main photo for the scarves.  How did you get it to seem to not have a background at all?  It makes an interesting photo that way.  Mine always shows the table or bedspread that I put the scarf on , but this is nice because there are no distractions from the scarf.
