Jewelry Ideas Using Seed Beads, Page 6

Wise Woman’s Necklace

This piece was created because we are wise women. Our knowledge has been handed down through the wise women of our past and the wise women we deal with today. This multistrand necklace is made of seed beads interspersed with glass leaf-shaped beads. Elegant cones finish off this elegant roit of color.

Woodland Brooch

I started off with some Lacey’s Stiff Stuff as the bead embroidery foundation. I dyed it to a suitable shade of black. I had a beautiful African turquoise cabochon which I had stashed away, waiting for the right moment of creativity to spark. I sewed different semi precious stones around the cabochon, choosing muted tones that would […]

Tassle To Go Necklace

I created this necklace by stringing Rainbow Flourite donuts, Violet Swarovski crystals, a silver plated hammered circle center piece, and purple matte seed beads. This necklace has a lobster clasp and chain so length can be adjusted.

Three-strand Purple Bracelet with Charms

I was just playing around with some leftover beads from a double-strand watch project when I made this bracelet. The heart charm was an afterthought because I was having fun shaping eyepins and made a few different ones. I used crackle glass beads, metal spacer beads, stone disc beads, hematite beads, one interesting glass bead […]

Butterfly Brooch

The wings are kept in resin. I glued them onto Stiff Stuff and surrounded them with very small Miyuki Delica beads and rocaille seed beads . The back is finished with dark green Ultrasuede and a brass brooch pin.

Mix and Match Reversible Beaded Necklace

I had a few larger beads and I did not know what to use them for (my necklaces are usually more delicate). One day the inspiration came in a store catalog–the idea of combining one strand of large beads and six strands of small beads. It is wearable top side down or up. It can […]

Druid Necklace

I just loved these beads, they were made by Caron at halo beads. The colours just lent themselves to be blended with black seed beads and some multi-faceted beads, to add a bit more sparkle. The little diamonte heart clasp just finished it off nicely. This is quite long and I did take it apart […]

Ring Of Fire Necklace

This necklace was a challenge to make! I wanted to incorporate strands of cord in with the beads and was unsure how to fasten them all together neatly. I ended up using a 26 gauge wire to bind the cords together, then I stitched seed beads over the wire with thread so the wire wouldn’t […]

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

This set was inspired during spring time, and it’s made from green cat’s eye beads, flower metal beads, and green seed beads. Metal lobster clasp.

Blue And Green Shell Pendant

This set uses silver plated chain attached with jump rings to a beaded section that consists of green shell beads and 4mm blue rice pearls. The shell pendant is attached on the wire by a heavy gauge jump ring. The earrings are on lever back posts with a rice pearl attached by a jump ring […]

Golden Arielle Bracelet

This bracelet is composed of cute little golden bows separated by bronze flowers. The flowers are arranged from fire polished beads and golden Japanese seeded beads. I used matte gold findings to top it off.

Turkish Twist Necklace

I love the variety of textures and colors available through twist necklaces but I also wanted a pendant to tie all of them together and give the piece a focal point. The Turkish eyes seemed perfect. There are five strands altogether: a strand of teal glass beads, a strand of blue seed beads, a strand […]
