This tutorial from PotomacBeads shows you how to make beaded crystal balls with your choice of Swarovski, Preciosa, or Gobi bicone or round crystal beads. These beaded balls make great beads, pendants, earrings, and more!
In this tutorial, you will learn how to make glittery Beaded Crystal Balls using only Potomac crystal bicones and two needles. These Beaded Crystal Balls can be used in all sorts of jewelry projects and are sure to add some sparkle to your creations!
1. Gather up your Potomac Crystal Bicones, earwires and a thread burner. Attach two size 10 needles to twenty-four inches of thread (one on each end). Keep the needles to the right and left to avoid getting mixed up.
2. Put on five beads with the right hand needle. Go back through the last bead with the left needle to form a circle. Pick up four more beads with your right needle, go back through the last bead again with the left needle, pull tight and then bring the left needle through the bead beside the one you just went through. Then pick up three beads with the right needle, sew back through to make a circle with the left needle. Repeat the process two more times.
3. Follow along with Allie in the Beaded Crystal Balls tutorial to see how to bring the beads together to
form the beads into a ball. Stick a headpin through the middle of the beads to add an earwire.
Making your own beaded crystal balls is easier than you might think, and once you get the hang of it you'll be hooked! They make beautiful little earrings, perfect for a special night out, but you can also use them to make all sorts of other jewelry.

Good site. Good product. But the purchase today did not apply discount. Frustrating. Edit-it took a simple email to resolve the problem.
