Learn how to create an XO Crystal Love Pendant using right-angle weave (RAW) techniques. This versatile design can be adapted into earrings, necklaces, or bracelets, making it perfect for various occasions. Use Montees (SS16), 8/0 and 11/0 seed beads, Dragon Thread, and a size 10 or 11 needle to craft the pendant. Master RAW units to form the X and O shapes, embellish with Montees, and secure the pieces with decorative connections. Customize the pendant with different bead colors, sizes, and arrangements to create personalized designs for gifts or your jewelry collection.
Gather Materials:
SS16 Montees. 8/0 and 11/0 seed beads. Dragon Thread (6-8 feet). Size 10 or 11 beading needle. Wire guards (optional, for attaching chains).
Create the "O" Shape:
String 8/0 seed beads to form 10 right-angle weave (RAW) units in a loop. Secure the loop by stitching through the top and bottom beads of each RAW unit. Add one 8/0 seed bead between each bottom unit and between the top units to stabilize the circle.
Embellish the "O":
Attach Montees diagonally across the RAW units using 11/0 seed beads. Sew securely through the Montees and RAW units to ensure stability.
Create the "X" Shape:
Start with six RAW units in a straight line. Taper the ends by reducing the number of beads in the last units.
Add Montees to the "X":
Attach Montees diagonally across the RAW units, using the same method as for the O shape. Ensure all Montees are positioned evenly and securely.
Connect the X and O:
Use square stitch to join the bottom of the X to the side of the O. Reinforce the connection by stitching multiple times through the beads.
Add Wire Guards:
Attach wire guards to the top of the pendant for secure connections to chains or earring findings. Sew through the wire guards multiple times for durability.
Finalize the Pendant:
Tighten all threads, trim excess, and check for symmetry. Add a chain, earring hooks, or use as a centerpiece in a bracelet.
