Free beading pattern for Bonnie Bracelet

May 3, 2022 / admin / 1 Comment

Enjoy a free video tutorial to accompany the PDF instructional diagram for this design! I was so happy with how this bracelet turned out, and I had lots of fun experimenting with different colors. The pieces with alternating superduo colors give interest and depth, but the single-color ones have a nice classic clean look – I like both! I also think this could make a great wrap bracelet by doubling or tripling the bracelet length. You can use any 6mm bead or crystal with this pattern, which makes it versatile. I hope you enjoy this free beading pattern!

Materials

For this bracelet, you will need 11/0 TOHO and 15/0 seed beads, one or two colors of superduos, and around fourteen 6mm beads or crystals (for a 7″ bracelet including clasp – more if you want it longer). The 6mm beads can be round beads, pearls, round crystals, or bicone crystals. You will also need two 6/0 or 8/0 seed beads to connect the clasp with jump rings.

April 21, 2022 / admin / 1 Comment

Enjoy a video tutorial to accompany the free PDF download for this design! This bracelet is designed to coordinate with the Evelyn Necklace from my previous post. Along with superduos, the pattern works with any 11/0 seed bead, and any round bead or crystal as long as it is 6mm. This versatility allows for endless color combinations, which makes this a fun bracelet to make. I hope you enjoy this free beading pattern!

Materials

For this bracelet, you need 11/0 seed beads (any kind, Czech, TOHO, etc), superduos, and 6mm beads or crystals (19 – 22 of them, depending on how long you want the bracelet to be). You will also need two 6/0 or 8/0 seed beads at either end to connect the clasp with jump rings.

FREE beading pattern: Marquessa Bracelet

FREE beading pattern for Marquessa Bracelet

February 10, 2022 / admin / 1 Comment

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).

FREE beading pattern: Pretty Hearts Bracelet

FREE beading pattern for Pretty Hearts Bracelet

January 6, 2022 / admin / 4 Comments

Enjoy a video tutorial along with the free PDF diagram for this design! This new bracelet is one of my favorite seed-bead-only designs, and I’m posting it in time to make for Valentine’s Day! Because it is made of only seed beads, it is light weight, thin, and comfortable to wear. I enjoyed experimenting with different color combinations, and found contrasting colors look best to bring out the heart shapes within the frame. I hope you have fun with this free beading pattern!

Materials

You need 11/0 round seed beads in two colors for this bracelet, TOHO or Czech, as long as both colors are the same type. You will also need two 6/0 seed beads for the jump rings to go through to connect the clasp.

In the samples shown below, the silver hearts framed with red, and the white hearts framed in pink were made with smaller Czech beads, where 11 hearts in the first row makes about a 6.25-inch bracelet (6.75 inches with clasp). Simply add hearts to make it longer (each heart adds about 1/2-inch). The gold hearts framed in grey, and the red hearts framed in silver were made with TOHO (larger) seed beads. With TOHO seed beads, 10 hearts in the first row made about a 6.25-inch bracelet (6.75 inches with clasp). Each heart you add will add slightly more than 1/2″ to the bracelet.

FREE beading pattern for Garland Bracelet

November 16, 2021 / admin / 1 Comment

Enjoy a free video tutorial to go with the PDF diagram for this design! I love this new bracelet design, meant to coordinate with the Garland Earrings and Garland Necklace from my previous posts. It is perfect for the Holidays, but also gorgeous for other occasions. I hope you enjoy this free beading pattern!

Materials

You only need two colors of superduos and 11/0 TOHO seed beads for this bracelet, plus two 6/0 or 8/0 seed beads for jump rings to go through for the clasp. Each “component” of the bracelet is about 1/2 inch, so you can customize to your desired length.
