Free beading pattern: Peacock Feather Pendant

Enjoy a step-by-step video tutorial to accompany the free PDF with instructional diagrams for this design. The original inspiration for this pendant was a peacock feather, but the design lends itself to colors outside of that. Now that Spring is here, I wanted to share a design that explodes with color, and this is it! Be brave and have fun experimenting with wild color combinations. I hope you enjoy this free beading pattern!

Materials

For this pendant, you will need these materials:

  • 14mm Rivoli crystal (also known as Chaton crystal)
  • 11/0 TOHO seed beads (or 11/0 Dynamite seed beads) in up to three colors
  • 15/0 seed beads
  • superduos (two colors)
  • one 6/0 or 8/0 seed bead
  • Jump ring
  • Bail (or use a few larger jump rings as a bail)
  • Size 11 or 12 beading needle
  • 2 meters of 6lb Fireline (or stringing material of your choice)

I used Rivoli crystals of varying quality – the cheaper ones (from Amazon.com) tend be thicker around the edge, but the pattern worked with both types. Below is a list of colors I used. (HL = Hobby Lobby, JWD = Jill Wiseman Designs, FMG = Fire Mountain Gems, AZ = Amazon.com, BB = Bobby Bead).

Free beading pattern for Wave Bracelet (Single and Double)

FREE beading pattern: Wave Bracelet
FREE beading pattern: Wave Bracelet

Enjoy a step-by-step video tutorial to accompany the free PDF instructional diagram for this design. Inspired by the shaping of my Snake Pendant, I applied some of the same techniques into making this wavy bracelet. You can make a single wave bracelet or attach a 2nd wave to braid into a double wave bracelet. I had fun experimenting with different color combinations. I hope you enjoy this free beading pattern!

Materials

This bracelet requires superduos, 11/0 TOHO seed beads, and two 6/0 or 8/0 seed beads to connect the clasp with jump rings. If making the double-wave version, using two colors of superduos (one for each wave) gives a nice contrast. When making the double-wave version of this bracelet, make the first strand one curve longer than the desired bracelet length, as it will shrink a bit when the 2nd strand is braided in.

FREE beading pattern: Marquessa Earrings

Enjoy a free video tutorial to accompany the free PDF diagram for this design! These earrings coordinate with the Marquessa Bracelet and Marquessa Necklace from my previous posts. The arrangement of crystals here are reminiscent of a chandelier, dazzling with sparkle! The design looks great with either two colors of bicone crystals (like the green/gold or purple/silver examples) or one color (like the black/gold earrings). Have fun experimenting with different color combinations! I hope you enjoy this free beading pattern.

Materials

For these earrings you will need superduos (18 of them), bicone crystals in two colors (14 of each) or one color (28), 11/0 TOHO seed beads, and two 6/0 or 8/0 seed beads to connect the ear hooks with jump rings.

FREE beading pattern for Marquessa Bracelet

FREE beading pattern: Marquessa Bracelet
FREE beading pattern: Marquessa Bracelet

Enjoy a free video tutorial to accompany the free PDF diagram for this design! This bracelet coordinates nicely with the Marquessa Necklace from my last post. The adjacent superduos along the sides resemble ropes, giving a nice clean outline alongside the adjacent crystals. The piece is made in 3 rows: going down one side, up the other side, then zipping the two sides together in the middle in a zig-zag pattern. The design looks great with either two colors of bicone crystals (like the green/gold or purple/silver examples) or one color (like the black/gold piece). Have fun experimenting with different color combinations! I hope you enjoy this free beading pattern.

Materials

This piece requires 11/0 TOHO seed beads, superduos, 4mm crystals (1 or 2 colors), and two 6/0 or 8/0 seed beads to put jump rings through for the clasp. To make a 7-inch bracelet (not including clasp), you will need about 23 crystals of each color (or 46 of one color). Each pair of crystals adds about 1/3-inch, if you want to make the bracelet longer (or shorter).

The adjacent superduos along the top resemble a rope, giving a nice clean line for the crystals to hang from. The piece is made in a single row to your desired length.

Materials

This piece requires 11/0 TOHO seed beads, superduos, 4mm crystals (1 or 2 colors), and two 6/0 or 8/0 seed beads to put jump rings through for the clasp. To make a 16-inch necklace, you will need about 53 crystals of each color (or 106 of one color). To make a longer necklace, you will need about 3 more crystals in each color (or 6 more of one color) per inch.
