Free beading pattern for patriotic Betsy Earrings

June 30, 2022 / admin / 0 Comments

Enjoy a step-by-step video tutorial to accompany the free PDF diagram download for this design! I love this earring design, simple and quick to make. These earrings coordinate with the Betsy Bracelet from my previous post. It has different looks based on color choice: The red, white, and blue gives a patriotic “Captain America” vibe, and floral colors resemble spring flowers. The center component looks more like a star if you use the same (white) color (at steps 1-2 in the diagram), and more like flowers if you use different colors. I loved both color schemes. I hope you enjoy this free beading pattern!

Materials

Like the Betsy Bracelet, you will need 11/0 TOHO seed beads (2 colors), superduos (2 colors), 4mm round beads (2 colors), plus two 6/0 or 8/0 seed beads to connect the ear hook or clip with jump rings. I used a total of about 1.5 meters (yards) of 6-lb FireLine for both earrings, and a size 10 beading needle.

Free beading pattern for patriotic Betsy Bracelet

June 23, 2022 / admin / 1 Comment

Enjoy a step-by-step video tutorial to accompany the free PDF diagram download for this design! I love this cuff bracelet design, that can have different looks based on color choice. Use red, white, and blue to get a “Stars and Stripes” look; use floral colors to look like spring flowers. The center components look more like stars if you use the same (white) color (at steps 1, 2, and 8 in the diagram), and more like flowers if you use different colors. I loved both color schemes. The bracelet is made in 5 rows (though the 5th row is optional). I hope you enjoy this free beading pattern!

Materials

For this bracelet you will need 11/0 TOHO seed beads (2 colors), superduos (2 colors), 4mm round beads (2 colors), plus two 6/0 or 8/0 seed beads at either end to connect the clasp with jump rings. For a 7-inch bracelet (including clasp), you will need to make 8 flower/star components in the first row, requiring eight 4mm beads for the component center, and 62 4mm beads surrounding the components. I used a size 10 beading needle with about 4 meters/yards of 6-lb Fireline. I’m only comfortable working with a maximum of 2 meters/yards of thread at a time, so I used that amount, then connected another segment of Fireline halfway through using a lighter (shown in the video).

Free beading pattern for Bonnie Earrings

May 12, 2022 / admin / 0 Comments

Enjoy a step-by-step video tutorial to go with the free PDF diagram download for this design! These earrings coordinate with the Bonnie Bracelet in my previous post. The pieces with alternating superduo colors give interest and depth, but the single-color ones have a nice classic clean look – I like both! You can use any 6mm bead or crystal with this pattern, which makes it versatile. I hope you enjoy this free beading pattern!

Materials

Like the Bonnie Bracelet, you will need 11/0 TOHO and 15/0 seed beads, one or two colors of superduos, and six 6mm beads or crystals. 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 earhook or clip with jump rings.

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.

FREE beading pattern for Darlene Earrings

March 31, 2022 / admin / 1 Comment

Enjoy a video tutorial to accompany the PDF diagram for this design! These earrings coordinate with the Darlene Necklace from my last post and are quick and easy to make. I hope you enjoy this free beading pattern!

Materials

For these earrings you will need 11/0 Czech seed beads, 14 superduos, two 4mm round beads or crystals, and two 6/0 or 8/0 seed beads to put jump rings through to attach the ear hooks at the top. I used the same materials as the Darlene Necklace, so you can reference that post for exact materials list.
