Incanto Pendant

This pattern is from the  April/May 2015Beadwork Magazine and it is by Monica Vinci an Italian beader.
The actual is for earrings, but it was a little to big for earrings for me, so I turned it into a pendant.
I used 15/0, 11/0 seed beads, Superduos, 3mm bicone crystals, 4mm pearls in two colors 6mm pearls, piggy beads and a drop.
I get a lot of comments when I wear this pendant.

Peyote Fan Earrings

I made these earrings one afternoon and I was hooked.
The pattern is from Linda's Crafty Inspirations blog, I like Linda's blog, she has links to lots of pattern, and if you are like, always on Pinterest, you will see a lot of her work there.
you will find the free pattern for this earrings here .
The earrings above I made using Linda's pattern,  but I changed the last step and I used Crystals for the last row.




And then I went crazy and I made the above earrings.
I changed the size of the beads and I used 11/0 seed beads, 8/0 seed beads, 6/0 seed beads, and 4mm Crystals.
The last one I changes the last part and I used 4mm rondelles.
I hope you like my earrings.

Princess Charlotte

I was taking pictures of some of the jewelry I had finished and one of my daughters suggested that I name this bead embroidery pendant after Princess Charlotte.
The center of this pendant is a button I bought at Hobby Lobby, this is a very simple pendant.

Bangle Bracelet


This bracelet was an attempt on the Merry-go-Round Bangle by Csilla Csirmaz pattern in the April/May 2015 Beadwork Magazine.
I couldn't make it work like the magazine and so this is what I ended making after 5 tries.
It happens sometimes, I really like the bangle in the magazine, but I just couldn't get it to work.
I will wear this one anyway.
