"Jelena was kind enough to provide a narrow version of this bracelet and it’s perfect. I changed the colors, as this is a gift for a friend who lives on the coast - so beachy colors. It’s a beautiful pattern and the 3-drop of course, allows it to work up quickly. I’ll certainly be back for more patterns."


This peyote bracelet pattern is available here: Bargello Mesmerize

Peyote stitch beaded bracelet cuff Camouflage

 

I've revised and updated the peyote stitch pattern 'Camouflage'. This cuff I made for my teen son. It's 2 drop peyote stitch technique, an easier and quicker version. 

The pattern is listed on my Etsy shop Lariata.etsy.com and available here: Camouflage.

peyote stitch alphabet letters A-Z pattern

 

These personalized bracelets I made for nieces. Used Nymo thread and size 11 Toho beads. The girls liked their gifts.  


... and put the bracelets on hands.


I designed a new peyote stitch pattern of letters from A - Z and tested it. Here is another bracelet in progress: 


Used size 11 Delica beads. I prefer Delica beads because all beads are in one size and perfectly fit each other. 

The alphabet letters from A - Z pattern is available in my Etsy shop: Lariata.etsy.com. It is easy to create personalized bracelets. Just arrange the letters in this pattern to create the word or phrase of your choice. 

The PDF file includes all letters from A - Z, a large numbered color graph of pattern, and blank peyote stitch graph pages for arranging letters for your customized project. There are both, even-count and odd-count options.

pattern of seashells


This is my little collection of seashells. I like them so much, they remind me of the sea, sand on a beach, warm sunny days. It inspired me to design the pattern of nautilus seashell.

how to make lace earrings


Art deco inspired lace earrings. I think that lace and freshwater pearls are great partners. It's easy to do yourself :) I used lace, freshwater pearls, textile glue, earwires and some findings (chain, pins, jump rings, filigree bases). 
First step: cut out lace motifs you like. Then spread the back side and edges with fabric glue. Keep pieces flat until glue is dry. Gluing makes lace motifs more durable and less fragile.
Second step: attach earwires using round nose pliers. You can embellish earrings with beads, chains, charms as you like.


Textile glue must be transparent. If you have not textile glue, you can use white glue (PVA): mix 1 part of water to 1 part of glue (proportion 1:1), spread this mix to lace motifs and let dry. 


These earrings shown on the photos are available in my shop ArtStitch on Etsy.

Mermaid's set


I bought 10 strands of freshwater pearls from the shop 8Seasons. Now I have a lot of work to use all of them. This design I named "Mermaid's Collar", the necklace is made in herringbone and coraling technique. I've added shell spikes for more satin shimmering. Tiny golden daisy beads add more sparkling.


Gold plated S-clasp is easy to use.


And finished look on a model:

freshwater pearl set


The set have a new home. It was made for Marina from Suvor-off.com. Sterling silver clips with beautiful shiny freshwater pearls are comfortable for sensitive ears. They measure about 1.5 cm (0.6") long. And this amazing necklace is very-very long. There are 189 beautiful big freshwater pearls in the necklace. Pearl size is 8 mm (0.32") and the necklace measures about 160 cm (63") long. It's really long.

Used real freshwater pearls and blue zircon rondelles.


All pearls are knotted, there is a knot in between each and every pearl. That knot does a couply great things: It keeps the pearls separated slightly so they don't rub against each other and break off the outer shell. The knot also keeps your pearls safe in case you accidentally break the necklace. If the strand breaks, only one pearl falls off the strand, instead of 188 pearls rolling all over the floor!
