Free beading pattern for Snake Pendant

FREE beading pattern: Snake Pendant
FREE beading pattern: Snake Pendant

Enjoy a free video tutorial to accompany the PDF instructional diagram for this Snake Pendant design. After playing around with different methods to stitch curves with superduos and seed beads, I developed this cute pattern for a Snake Pendant. It has a beaded loop in the back as a hidden bail, so no jump rings are needed. I liked how superduos with a varied finish (like Picasso or Chalk) looked the best. I hope you enjoy this free beading pattern!

Materials

This pendant only requires sixteen superduo beads and 11/0 TOHO seed beads (two seed beads in a different color for the eyes – I used red). Photos below of the green snake pendant show how the back of the pendant has a beaded loop to act as a hidden bail. There’s no need for jump rings or bail findings for this pendant, just the cord or chain it will hang on.

Free beading pattern for Reversible Ophelia Pendant

FREE Beading Pattern: Ophelia Pendant
FREE Beading Pattern: Ophelia Pendant

Enjoy a video tutorial to accompany the free PDF instructions for this design! Using a new way to cage 8x10mm rondelle crystals, I designed this pendant to coordinate with the Ophelia Earrings from my last post. I especially like transparent colors for the rondelle crystals with this design, as light reflecting through them adds depth when it shines through the open areas of each beaded cage. The best part is this pendant is REVERSIBLE. I hope you enjoy this free beading pattern!

Materials

This pendant requires six 8x10mm rondelle crystals (preferably transparent), 11/0 TOHO round seed beads, and two 6/0 or 8/0 seed beads. A jump ring connects the pendant to a bail to hang it on a chain, cord, or ribbon. In two of the pendants, I made a simple bail out of 2 or 3 larger jump rings. I used a size 10 beading needle, and about 3 meters of 6-lb Fireline to construct the pendant.

The seed beads I used were 11/0 TOHO round PermaFinish opaque galvanized aluminum, and opaque bronze. (These are among my favorite seed beads to use because they don’t tarnish). All of the 8x10mm rondelle crystals came from Michael’s, in their strung rondelle crystal sets (8x10mm being the largest size). The sets are pictured below. I’ve used these in many other designs including Brielle Earrings, Lillian Earrings, Arabella Earrings, Arabella Pendant, Wing Drop Bracelet, Wing Drop Necklace, Wing Drop Earrings, Rondelle Radiance Earrings, Rondelle Radiance Necklace, and Rondelle Radiance Bracelet… There are plenty of projects to use up the rest of the rondelle crystals in the set!

Free beading pattern for Ophelia Earrings

Free Beading Pattern: Ophelia Earrings
Free Beading Pattern: Ophelia Earrings

Enjoy a video tutorial to accompany the free PDF instructions for this design! It’s been a while since my last post, but I think this design is worth the wait. After much trial and error, I invented a new way to cage 8x10mm rondelle crystals, and this became the main inspiration behind this design. I especially like transparent colors for the rondelle crystals with this design, as light reflecting through them adds depth when it shines through the open areas of each beaded cage. I hope you enjoy this free beading pattern!

Materials

These earrings require six 8x10mm rondelle crystals (preferably transparent), 11/0 TOHO round seed beads, and two 6/0 or 8/0 seed beads to feed the jump rings through to attach the ear hooks or clips. I use a size 10 beading needle, and about 1.5 meters of 6-lb Fireline per earring.

The seed beads I used were 11/0 TOHO round PermaFinish opaque galvanized aluminum, and opaque bronze. (These are among my favorite seed beads to use because they don’t tarnish). All of the 8x10mm rondelle crystals came from Michael’s, in their strung rondelle crystal sets (8x10mm being the largest size). The sets look like this:

Free beading pattern for lacy Diana Necklace

Free beading pattern: Diana Necklace
Free beading pattern: Diana Necklace

Enjoy a video tutorial to accompany the free PDF diagram for this design! I love how “lacy” this piece looks. Only the smaller Czech 11/0 seed beads works with this pattern. (I tried larger 11/0 TOHOs, but they didn’t work). This necklace is made in five rows. You need to make the first row 3 inches longer than your desired necklace length, because rows 2 and 3 will shrink the length. I think the Darlene Earrings would coordinate nicely with this necklace. I hope you enjoy this free beading pattern!

Materials

For this necklace you will need superduos, 4mm round beads (about 100 for a 16-inch necklace), and 11/0 Czech seed beads – only smaller 11/0s work (i.e. Czech, not TOHO). You will also need two 6/0 or 8/0 seed beads to feed the jump rings through at the ends to attach a clasp. I use 6lb Fireline (about 5 meters/yards) with a size 10 beading needle.

Free beading pattern for patriotic Betsy Earrings

Free beading pattern: Betsy Earrings
Free beading pattern: Betsy Earrings

Enjoy a step-by-step video tutorial to accompany the free PDF diagram download for this design! I love this earring design, simple and quick to make. These earrings coordinate with the Betsy Bracelet from my previous post. It has different looks based on color choice: The red, white, and blue gives a patriotic “Captain America” vibe, and floral colors resemble spring flowers. The center component looks more like a star if you use the same (white) color (at steps 1-2 in the diagram), and more like flowers if you use different colors. I loved both color schemes. I hope you enjoy this free beading pattern!

Materials

Like the Betsy Bracelet, you will need 11/0 TOHO seed beads (2 colors), superduos (2 colors), 4mm round beads (2 colors), plus two 6/0 or 8/0 seed beads to connect the ear hook or clip with jump rings. I used a total of about 1.5 meters (yards) of 6-lb FireLine for both earrings, and a size 10 beading needle.
