Cynthia showcased unique oval Czech glass beads in this jewelry set, along with gorgeous crystal accents and a few seed beads from an Artbeads Designer Blend. The result is a set that pays homage to the ocean's beauty. Cynthia made these pieces on a Facebook Live design challenge video. You can watch her make this set and others here.
Slide a 6mm round pearl in Crystal Iridescent Dark Blue onto a 1-inch 20 gauge sterling silver eye pin, followed by a shiny blue seed bead from the Artbeads Bluebird Designer Blend, a 4mm bicone in Dark Moss Green and a shiny blue seed bead. Make a wrapped loop at the top of the beads.
Repeat this pattern five times. Then, add a Dark Moss Green bicone and five Czech roundels. Add your octopus focal to the strand using a jump ring. Make a mirror image of the entire bead pattern on the other side of the focal.
Cut a length of jewelry wire approximately seven inches long. Add a 14mm Classic Cut pendant in Aquamarine to the center of the wire.
Add the following beads to both ends of the wire:
Pull the wire tight so that the seed beads and the Classic Cut pendant at the center of the strand form a dangling loop.
Nice choice! All or most of the products needed for this project are shown below with quantities. Sometimes we sell out of components and aren’t able to order more from the manufacturer (we know, it is very disappointing to us, too). Use the opportunity to mix up the design and make it yours by substituting similar products or altering the entire color scheme—it’s up to you!
