Bangle & Bracelet

 I made these Bracelet & Bangle Using Russian Spiral Beading Method.

I've made several bracelets,necklaces & anklets using Spiral Rope Chain Method.

Beading is one hobby which gives me great pleasure and a sense of contentment.
Beading work requires great skill and imagination.

This spiral rope chain design looks like a complicated one. But really it is very easy.
The only thing we have to do is choosing right bead and good color combination.
The thread should be very thin.
It has to pass through beads several times to do spiral rope.
It is very important to choose thread/wire accordingly.

Next important point is needle.
The needle should be very very thin.
Its eyes should be just right to thread the wire.

Things needed :
beads
nylon wire
needle size 12
clasps or hooks
scissors

Pendants - Diamond With Conical Crystals

These Diamond shaped pendants are made with bicone crystals.
Here simple rectangular square beading technique has been used.
It is actually two layers connected with inter connecting crystals.
This technique gives a 3 D effect.

Beading is one of the hobbies I like to do very often.
There are many types of beads available in the market.
Choosing right color and combination of bead sizes is the first step for a successful outcome.
Then the design has be chosen carefully according to the bead color and bead size.
Beading tools like thread, cutter and other tools have to be kept at arms length.

The needle for the beading work should be carefully chosen.
The needle should be very thin and able to pass through the hole of beads.
Sometimes it has to pass through the same bead many times.
Then also the needle along with the thread/wire has to pass through easily.

The beading thread or nylon wire is also other important item to get a good result.
These are available in various thicknesses in the market.
We have to carefully select according to our needs.
Here same size crystals are used.

Only the second row right one is slightly different which is done with 6 crystals in one round. Seed beads are used.

After doing beading work finishing a work very neatly is the most important aspect of beading.

Ear-Ring OR Hoops

Ear rings 

These hoops are readily available in the market.

These hoops can also be made using pliers using gold wires in desired shapes and sizes.

These hoops are made with available beads & Crystals with me.
I made small globules & then inserted onto the hoops along with
available crystals.
Top left :
I inserted available beads in a sequence and then bent the end of the hoop so that these inserted beads will not come out.
Top right :
I made balls using orange seed beads. Then inserted into the hoops.
Bottom left :
Balls are made with dark blue and light blue seed beads.
First inserted seed beads one by one from one end of the hoop.
Then inserted the balls, dark blue ball, light blue and then again dark blue one.
Now filled the other end with seed beads in the same order as the other end.
Bottom right :
In this hoop I made balls using seed beads.
I used two colors of seed beads.
One is peacock blue color and the other is light blue.
I made 12 small small balls.
First insert 1 peacock blue seed bead, then 1 light blue, 1 peacock blue seed bead and a ball
Repeat the same sequence 5 times and finally finish by adding 1 peacock color seed bead, 1 light blue color seed bead and 1 peacock blue color seed bead.
Slightly bend the end through which the beads are threaded into using a nose plier.
In the same way arrange beads and balls in the other hoop also.

These are some ideas to use up left over beads of our bead box!! 

Ear Drop Using Spiral Rope Chain

This Ear drop set is made using Spiral Rope chain method.

I've added Marble chips to make it attractive.

While doing Spiral rope chain it is very important to select beads, nylon wire and needle carefully.
the wire has to pass through beads several times through the beads.
If the wire is thick it is very difficult to thread through the beads after third time or so.
There is also danger of breaking the beads because of needle pressure spoiling the whole effort.
Once the beads and other materials are ready spiral rope chain is the easiest technique to work on.

Things required
Seed beads     grey color
Needle       12 size
nylon thread      very thin may be 0.25mm
marble chips

I've made several bracelets,necklaces & anklets using Spiral Rope Chain Method.

Next important point is needle.
The needle should be very very thin.
Its eyes should be just right to thread the wire.

Before starting we have to decide whether we are going to make only rope or also pendant to be attached in the middle.
For that also right choice of beads or crystals are necessary.

Things needed :
seed beads
crystals
nylon wire
needle size 12
scissors
