FREE beading pattern: Christmas Diamond Earrings

FREE beading pattern: Christmas Diamond Earrings

This is an earring design to coordinate with the Christmas Diamond Necklace from my last post. These earrings are much quicker to make than the necklace, which is a nice way to test different color schemes before committing to the necklace. Two sizes of bugle beads are required: #2 (5mm) green bugle beads, and #3 (7mm) red bugle beads. I made these in a different color scheme as well, using black and clear/irridescent bugles. 8/0 and 11/0 TOHO seed beads are also required, as are jump rings and ear hooks to finish them off. I hope you enjoy this free beading pattern!

I love making geometric designs with bugle beads! This design uses two different sizes of bugle beads to create the curve in the necklace: #2 (5mm) green bugle beads, and #3 (7mm) red bugle beads. 11/0 and 8/0 seed beads are also required. (I like to use galvanized PermaFinish metallic seed beads from FireMountainGems.com, as they resist tarnishing over time). This necklace took me a while to make (so I only made one), but it was worth the patience. It is a light-weight necklace, and the way the bugles catch the light make it a stunning piece. I hope you enjoy this free beading pattern!

FREE beading pattern for Rondelle Radiance Necklace

This is the last post in my “Rondell Radiance” series, where I challenged myself to design a matching bracelet, earrings, and necklace set using a single package of rondelle crystals of different sizes.

After the Rondelle Radiance Bracelet and Earrings from my last 2 posts, I had 17 8x10mm, 3 6x8mm, 15 4x6mm, and 4 3x4mm rondelle crystals left to work with.

This necklace design requires all of the 8x10mm and 4x6mm rondelles I had left, so the only left-over crystals after this challenge are three 6x8mm and four 3x4mm rondelles… not bad! This necklace also requires 11/0 and 8/0 seed beads plus a lobster clasp and two jump rings at both ends. This design makes a 17″ necklace, but can be extended by including more of diamond-shaped “chain” links at the beginning and end.

This necklace design is made in 2 rows, but even making it with only the first row looks nice too.

Since I did not make a bracelet for the bronze/cream piece, I had extra 3x4mm rondelles to include a variation on the first row of the necklace (using 16 3x4mm rondelles instead of the 8/0 seed beads).

Both variations look nice. I hope you enjoy this design series, and this free beading pattern!
