Enjoy a step-by-step video tutorial to accompany the free PDF instructional diagram for this DIY earring design! This design is quick and easy to make, and also versatile. You can use any type of 6mm bead as the focal point, including pearls or even bicone crystals: transparent, opaque, matte, or shiny. Frame them with any variety of superduo colors and finishes for endless possibilities. These earrings make great gifts as well. Have fun experimenting with different colors and finishes – I hope you enjoy this free beading pattern!

Materials

This piece requires 11/0 TOHO seed beads, two 6/0 or 8/0 seed beads, and superduos – plus 2 jump rings to connect ear hooks. I used about 1 meter/yard of 6-lb Fireline with a size 10 beading needle to make each earring.

Free beading pattern: Spring Vine Bracelet

Free Beading Pattern for Spring Vine Bracelet

April 17, 2024 / admin

Enjoy a step-by-step video tutorial to accompany the free PDF instructional diagram for this design! Pair this curvy vine-like budding bracelet with spring colors, and create a beautiful accessory for Spring. This bracelet works really well as a wrap bracelet, and works with a variety of bead finishes and palettes. Using colors in the same family (like varying pastels, or different shades of the same color) seemed to work better than highly contrasting color combinations. I hope you enjoy this free beading pattern!

Materials

A single wrap of this bracelet requires about ten 6mm round beads, ten 4mm round beads, twenty superduos, and 11/0 TOHO seed beads. For a bracelet with multiple wraps, you will need to multiply that by the number of wraps you want. Two 6/0 seed beads and two jump rings are also needed to attach a lobster clasp. In one of the bracelets (the one made with light green metallic seed beads), I used round beads that were closer to 5mm instead of 6mm, and that worked just as well.

Free beading pattern for Baronial Pendant

March 28, 2024 / admin / 1 Comment

Enjoy a step-by-step video tutorial to accompany the free PDF instructional diagram for this design! This component can work as a pendant or earring and is fairly quick and easy to make. Alternatively, you can make just the bottom part of the component for a shorter pendant or earring (not pictured). I hope you enjoy this free beading pattern!

Materials

For this pendant, you will need 11/0 TOHO seed beads, one 6/0 TOHO seed bead, seven 6mm round beads or pearls, and a bail or jump ring. (If making earrings, you will need twice as many round beads and seed beads, plus ear hooks instead of a bail). I used about 1.5 meters/yards of 6lb Fireline with a size 10 beading needle.

Free beading pattern for lacy Diana Necklace

July 27, 2022 / admin / 0 Comments

Enjoy a video tutorial to accompany the free PDF diagram for this design! I love how “lacy” this piece looks. Only the smaller Czech 11/0 seed beads works with this pattern. (I tried larger 11/0 TOHOs, but they didn’t work). This necklace is made in five rows. You need to make the first row 3 inches longer than your desired necklace length, because rows 2 and 3 will shrink the length. I think the Darlene Earrings would coordinate nicely with this necklace. I hope you enjoy this free beading pattern!

Materials

For this necklace you will need superduos, 4mm round beads (about 100 for a 16-inch necklace), and 11/0 Czech seed beads – only smaller 11/0s work (i.e. Czech, not TOHO). You will also need two 6/0 or 8/0 seed beads to feed the jump rings through at the ends to attach a clasp. I use 6lb Fireline (about 5 meters/yards) with a size 10 beading needle.
