FREE beading pattern for Pretty Hearts Earrings

Enjoy a video tutorial along with the free PDF diagram for this design! This new earring design coordinates with the Pretty Hearts Bracelet and Pretty Hearts Necklace from my previous posts and is made entirely with seed beads. Perfect for Valentine’s Day! Because this framed heart is made of only seed beads, it is very light weight and comfortable to wear. I enjoyed experimenting with different color combinations and found contrasting colors look best to bring out the inner 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 necklace, TOHO or Czech, as long as both colors are the same type. You will also need two 6/0 or 8/0 seed beads for the jump rings to go through to connect the ear hooks or clips.

The red/silver earrings and the gold/grey earrings below were made with the slightly larger TOHO 11/0 seed beads, and the pink/white earrings were made with smaller Czech seed beads (resulting in a slightly smaller earring).

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 Chip Net Bracelet

The only materials required for this bracelet are 11/0 seed beads, small or medium drilled chips, and a lobster claw clasp.  I found it is good to use 2 colors of seed beads, one for the main bracelet netting, and one that is the same color as the chips (or clear).  In the green gold piece, I had a smaller lobster claw clasp, so I adjusted the pattern slightly to make the other end with a 6/0 bead in the middle to put a jump ring through for the lobster claw clasp to connect to.  I hope you enjoy this free beading pattern!

FREE beading pattern for Chip Fringe Necklace

This is my latest design: a V-shape necklace featuring beautiful bugle fringes with coraled ends, hanging off a superduo beaded chain.  The use of natural stone drilled chips (or any drilled chips with some color variation) gives an organic feel to this necklace.  It was fun to experiment with different color combinations, and I love how all of them turned out!  The pattern requires twin or superduo beads, 11/0 seed beads (1 or 2 colors), bugle beads (any size), and small to medium drilled chips.  The last photo with the blue lapis chips shows a variation where I added half the fringe (alternating from every other twin bead instead of every twin bead) with 4 – 5 chips in the coral end instead of 2.  I hope you enjoy this free beading pattern!

FREE beading pattern for Lorraine Necklace

Special Note:

My apologies to those of you on the e-mail list who may have received multiple e-mails of my last post.  There was a server migration in December which caused a glitch in the e-mail mechanism, which I believe has now been fixed.

New pattern!

This is my latest necklace design, entitled Lorraine Necklace.  It requires 11/0 seed beads, 4mm pearls or crystals, 6mm & 8mm pearls (or round beads), and Superduo or twin beads.  If you choose to use 4mm crystals that are not bicone  (i.e. like the black/gold piece below, where the crystals are more oval), a slight adjustment to the pattern is needed.  If using oval crystals, then at steps 16 and 17 where you see 2 seed beads in a row, use only one.  Below the picture is a list of materials I used in the three pieces shown.  I hope you enjoy this free beading pattern!
