beadwoven rings


What will be happens if I weave two triangles in peyote stitch and then connect them together? May be it will be a rhomb.. and it was, embellished with swarovski crystal. 


Comfortable and lovely ring. Used Toho amethyst seed beads and white hex Delica size 11/o. Cute!


One more ring in other color - peach. Really, these peach beads are transparent yellow and pink lined. 


I will weave them more..

freshwater pearl set


This set was made for a custom order. I have used big freshwater pearls size 8-9 mm and some rondelles with green zircones. The earring measures about 3 cm including sterling silver leverback ear wire. The necklace is about 62 cm long with sterling silver lobster clasp. 


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 62 pearls rolling all over the floor!

Cute necklace completes the set with these earrings. Center pieces are so small and delicate as the pieces in the earrings. St.Petersburg chain is also gentle. Clear and golden beads give to the set a bridal kind.

Instead of drop beads I wished to use tourmaline rondelles. Unfortunately rondelles had very small hole. I tried to use a thin needle size 15, but unsuccessfully. I don't know what to do with these tourmaline rondelles now..

emerald green cuff bracelet

beadwoven cuff bracelet in emerald green with Swarovski by Lariata
This is not my idea, bracelet designed by Lisa Olson Tune. It's a great design to try herringbone stitch. I was used other materials and modified the clasp. I love made beadwoven clasps like a loop and a button or a loop and a toggle.

beadwoven ring with Swarovski rivoli

beadwoven ring with Swarovski rivoli
I have read in different articles that beadwoven rings are very convenient for wearing. This my first ring with rivoli Swarovski. I wish to test it, how much it is strong and wearable. And this ring really is very pleasant, don't want to put it off from a finger. It does not press, flexible, easily to put on and off from finger, almost it is not felt on a hand. I'm happy with this ring.

beadwoven ring with Swarovski rivoliUsed Swarovski rivoli 14 mm, Toho 11/o and 15/o. Size of ring is 15.5 (I hoped get the size 16, but I did a mistake in weave, so I'm wearing it on a little finger now).
