Delights In Kites - Necklace Beading Tutorial and Kit

With all the madness going on all of us in 2020, I somehow still managed to bead some and create new designs. It has always been a way to relax and energy recharger... 

This is my latest - Delights in Kites Necklace, available as a beading tutorial and as beading kit (available in two colors). It is shown as bib style necklace, but it can also be made in full neckline length.

I hope you all still bead, too. Let's keep creating and adding beauty to the world!

Stay safe and keep the positive spirit! ❤

Ava Nagilla Pendant Necklace

My newest beading tutorial is "Ava Nagilla" - a pendant using Ava beads, Tinos and Kheops par Puca  beads, Swarovski crystals and Japanese seed beads. I had much fun working with all those shaped beads and see how they fit together so nicely.
The pendant can be hang from one-strand or two-strand necklace of any type (instructions for the changes necessary to allow this are included in the tutorial).

The tutorial for this project can be purchased for instant download here.
