My inspiration for today's video comes from Jenni Jones and her New England Bead Society LIVE Design NIght! She is just a jewelry-making wizard! I saw her pendant and immediately thought to myself how would I make that - so here is my go at it. Jenni does such an awesome way of capturing the light within her pieces, I hope this inspires you in the same way.
This lovely Belmont Pendant features a gorgeous Potomac Crystal Rivoli in the center, giving it a decorative effect. This pendant makes a perfect gift for a loved one!
Technique Learned: Netting Stitch
Prepare the Beads: Start with a 14mm Rivoli and 11/0 seed beads. String approximately four feet of green Wildfire beading thread. Create the Base: Tie off a loop of 16 seed beads to form a circle. This serves as the base for your pendant. Add Petals: Sew through four beads, add rondelles and seed beads to form petals around the Rivoli's base. Insert the Rivoli: Use the netting technique to secure the Rivoli within the beaded base. Embellish the Sides: Apply the Right Angle Weave technique to add crystal rondelles and seed beads around the Rivoli. Attach the Tassel: Add a silk tassel at the bottom for an elegant finish. Complete the Pendant: Reinforce the beadwork and finish off the thread ends.
