Free Beading Pattern for Leilani Bracelet

September 29, 2026 / admin / 0 Comments

Enjoy a step-by-step video tutorial to accompany the free PDF instructional diagram for this design! This elegant design has elements similar to one of my favorite patterns, the Garland Bracelet. You can use any 6mm bead along the center, including pearls or even bicone crystals. Have fun experimenting with color combinations – I hope you enjoy this free beading pattern!

Materials

This piece requires 11/0 TOHO seed beads, superduos, 6mm round beads or crystals, and two 6/0 or 8/0 seed beads to connect jump rings for the clasp. I used a size 10 beading needle with about 2 meters/yards of 6-lb Fireline for this bracelet.

Free Beading Pattern for Camilla Bracelet

June 18, 2024 / admin / 1 Comment

Enjoy a step-by-step video tutorial to accompany the free PDF instructional diagram for this design! This bracelet is very easy to make and has two versions: one with 4mm crystal embellishments, and one without – the video tutorial and diagram explains both variations. In either version, using two colors of seed beads seems to work best: one that matches the superduo (version 1) or crystal (version 2), and a contrasting color for the border. Have fun experimenting with color combinations – I hope you enjoy this free beading pattern!

Materials

To make this bracelet you will need superduos, 11/0 TOHO seed beads (two colors), and two 6/0 seed beads to connect the lobster clasp with jump rings. If making version 2 of the bracelet, you will also need around a dozen 4mm bicone crystals. I find it is best to pick one of the seed bead colors that match the superduo (if making version 1) or crystal (if making version 2). I also liked transparent superduos for version 1. I used about 2 meters (yards) of 6-lb Fireline with a size 10 beading needle.

Free Beading Pattern for Reversible Ellie Bracelet

June 7, 2023 / admin / 1 Comment

Enjoy a step-by-step video tutorial to accompany the free PDF instructional diagram for this design! I love this bracelet and had fun experimenting with different colors. It coordinates nicely with the Ellie Necklace from my previous post, as well as the Ornate Cross Pendant. Although there are “front” color and “back” color superduos, you see both equally in the piece. I found I liked irridescent or multi-colored superduos the best on the front (anything with a varied and shiny finish), with a solid supporting color on the back. Like the Ellie Necklace, this bracelet is constructed in a single row and is reversible. I hope you enjoy this free beading pattern!

Materials

For this bracelet you will need 11/0 seed beads (TOHO or Czech), two colors of superduos, two 6/0 or 8/0 seed beads, 2 jump rings, and a lobster claw clasp. I used about 2 meters of 6 lb Fireline as my threading material, and a size 10 beading needle.

Free Beading Pattern for Ornate Cross Pendant

Enjoy a step-by-step video tutorial to accompany the free PDF instructional diagram for this design! I love this pendant, and had fun experimenting with different colors. Although there are “front” color and “back” color superduos, you see both equally in the piece. I found I liked irridescent or multi-colored superduos the best on the front (anything with a varied shiny finish), with a solid supporting color on the back. I hope you enjoy this free beading pattern!

Materials

For this pendant you will need two colors of superduos, 11/0 seed beads (TOHO or Czech), five 6/0 seed beads, and four 4mm crystals (bicone or round). You will also need a jump ring and a bail to connect the pendant to a cord or chain. I used 2 meters of 6 lb Fireline with a size 10 beading needle to construct each pendant.

Free beading pattern for Geneva Earrings

June 9, 2022 / admin / 0 Comments

Enjoy a step-by-step video tutorial to accompany the free PDF download for this design. These earrings are designed to coordinate with the Geneva Bracelet from my last post. I love the way this design has a visually interesting “swirl” to it. This design is versatile in that you can use any 11/0 round seed bead (Czech or TOHO), any 4mm bead (round, bicone, crystal, or pearl), and the component can make a nice pendant as well. The end of the video tutorial shows how you can connect this component to two longer Geneva Bracelet components to make a necklace (pictured below and modelled in the end of the short demo video below). I hope you enjoy this free beading pattern!

Materials

Like the Geneva Bracelet, this piece requires round 11/0 seed bead (TOHO or Czech), 4mm beads (pearls, round crystals, bicones, etc.), and superduos. You will need sixteen 4mm beads (8 per earring). I use about 2 feet of 6-lb Fireline as the thread for each earring. The white/gold piece was made with TOHO seed beads, and the rest with Czech. See my previous post for the Geneva Bracelet for a complete list of materials used in the pieces pictured below.
