I love this new butterfly necklace design, made from #3 (7mm) bugle beads, 4mm or 6mm beads or crystals, and 8/0 and 15/0 seed beads. You can create one or more butterfly components in a string, then finish off the necklace with jump rings to attach your chain of choice. I got the idea looking at one of my older designs (Bugle Triangles Necklace), and seeing that part of the triangle component looked a bit like a butterfly wing. It took several tries to construct something that resembled a whole butterfly, and to figure out the best thread path, but I am very happy with the result. It is also fairly quick to make. I always use 6lb Fireline when working with bugles, so the thread does not break on the bugles’ edges. I hope you enjoy this free beading pattern!
