I just released a new beading tutorial, Victory Pod Earrings so you can make earrings with this original variation on beaded Cellini spiral, combining peyote and herringbone stitches.
These
earrings are stylized, dangling drops with an elegant symmetry, like a
puffy V in 3D. The beadwork is stitched with just 3 sizes of regular
Japanese seed beads. No fancy shapes required! So if you are a bead
weaver, you probably already have everything you need. Using just a
pinch of each color, these pods are a great way to use up seed beads
leftover from other beading projects.
This project is suitable for intermediate bead weavers who like peyote stitch.
With ear wires the earrings measure 46 mm long.
Beaded pod measures 27 mm x 21 mm x 12 mm.
The
tutorial is 11 pages, with over 50 full color illustrations and
photographs, a colorful feast for the eyes. The tutorial gives highly
detailed illustrations, photographs, and written instructions to make
the earrings.
These earrings are designed to match the Cellini Flowers and Leaves. Here you can see a pair of Victory Pod Earrings colored to coordinate with a Large Cellini Flower for a matching pendant and earring set.
That's all for today. Thanks for looking!
