Beading Jewelry Ideas with Seed Bead, Page 7

Queen Of The Night

A necklace inspired by Verdi, the Magic Flute. I learned this bead embroidery technique in a book by Heidi Kummli and Sherry Serafini. The cabochon face, was done by me in cold mass of glass, and painted. The materials I used were Miyuki seed beads, Czech bugle beads, pearls, rocailles, and fire-polished beads. Some decoration, […]

Faith Necklace

This necklace was inspired by the seasonal time of the year. The SRA glass cross pendant I used is complimented by the handmade green and autumn brown spacers. Clear glass seed beads and Tibetan silver findings help to give the necklace its sparkle. I think this would be quite effective in other colours too.

White Rose Of Texas

I started by gluing the white resin rose to the leather, and then embroidered around it with white seed beads, crystals and pearls. I backed the creation with camel-colored leather. The necklace is strung with white beads of stone and resin as well as crystals of different sizes. It is about 20″ long.

Fringe Galore Pendant Necklace

This pendant uses a 25 x 30mm snowflake obsidian cabochon. It is hand beaded with 1 row silver seed beads, 1/2 row of 2mm onyx beads, bali silver lace tubes going into 24 graduated/alternating rows of black glass triangle seed beads/gunmetal gray seed beads with matte glass black daggers/sterling daggers. Several loops of black seed […]

Ethnic Fire Necklace and Earrings

I created this unique piece around these beautiful antique silver connectors. I used 6mm and 8mm bright orange Czech crystals, orange seed beads and different shapes of black glass beads to make charms and attached to connectors. I used 2-toned seed beads on tigertail to emphasize the ethnic look and finished it with a silver […]

Good Juju Wire Wrapped Collar

This piece was inspired by a friend’s Kenyan necklace made of bone & horn. I loved the strong shapes and the way the horns tapered around the sides of the neck. My beaded version looks nothing like hers, but it captures a similar earthy, bold feeling. I made frames with 20 gauge sterling plated copper […]

Flame Necklace

As I work with an open flame I felt it was appropriate to create a necklace celebrating my passion. In this necklace my handmade lampwork beads, gemstones, and Japanese seed beads are finger woven together with my forged sterling silver pieces suggesting the lick of the flame.

Marigold Splash Bracelet

This bracelet is made of crystal cube beads, oval cut Aurora Borealis crystal beads, Czech seed beads, crystal and yellow cut round glass beads, white seed bead spacers and a sterling silver toggle clasp.

Raspberry Ripple Bracelet

I made this bracelet as I simply like the colour of the glass seed beads. I wanted to use the beads as the main material for the bracelet rather than use them as a connection or surround for larger beads. I used fire line to weave the beads together and 3mm faceted glass beads in […]

Erica Tiara

This tiara was handmade by myself using cream Swarovski crystal pearls, clear Swarovski crystals and silver lined seed beads. This tiara features three wire wrapped flowers as the side focal which are complimented with wire wrapped leaves. I wanted to create a statement piece that was romantic and girlie whilst alluding to a sense of […]

Beaded Bead Three Strand Necklace

This necklace came about because I absolutely LOVE the size 11 seed bead mix I purchased at my local bead shop. I also learned to bead a bead, using these tiny beads. It’s very labor-intensive, but really worth it. The focal glass bead is beaded with these no. 11 beads, as well as four other […]

Amethyst Embelished Bracelet

I created this bracelet using square stitch, flat black cubes embelished with amethyst seed beads and silver spiral spacers. The total length of this bracelet is 8″. The clasp is a dark button that matches with the seed beads.

Ram Horn Peyote Stitch Necklace

I was influenced by Hittite figures and forms for this piece. I used the peyote technique with Japanese seed beads size 13 and size 15. The figure at the center of the necklace is handmade from 22 carat gold. I also used herringbone technique for clamps.

Red & Black Loomed Bracelet

A woven bead bracelet of red, black, and white seed beads.

Grass Koi Necklace

This necklace was made using Beadalon 49 strand flexible wire and was inspired by the idea of the lush green surroundings of a summer pond. The fish pendant is Hill Tribe Thai silver, and the beads are vintage West German Givre glass, Swarovski crystal, Delica seed beads, Czech glass, and celery colored freshwater pearls. The […]

Lucky Dice Necklace

This was the very first piece of proper jewellery I made. It was made for a friend who has her lucky number tattooed on her back in the form of two dice. I made it as a gift for her to celebrate her pregnancy. I used plated silver chain, head pins, eye pins, glass seed […]

Teal & Silver Swirls Necklace

Made with a very pretty (3.8cm, domed with flat back) hand crafted swirled clay pendant that has a glittery finish to it, some silver plated solid metal beads and some very small sterling silver square cut spacers to finish. The silver swirl detailing is made with silver plated wire. The seed beads used are foil […]

Embroidered Floral Bracelet

I embroidered on canvas with seed beads, bugle beads, and glass beads in complementary blue tones. I then lined the canvas with leather.

Spring Time Bracelet Set
