My newest pattern is now available at beadorigami.com; the Dewdrop Beaded Bead and Bracelet Set. The Bead Origami version of this pattern is expanded with additional illustrations and photographs, and includes a full pattern for the matching Dewdrop bracelet!
I got a little carried away with myself and put together kits in five different color palettes for this design. Here's one in Silvery Amethyst:
I've named this one Black Rose Tips in honor of a similar color palette Gwen used for her Cube Cluster beaded bead. I think that these two designs would coordinate quite well together in this color palette:
This one's Lavender Fields, because that's exactly what it reminds me of:
This one's Harvest Bounty. The red seed beads that I ordered for this kit turned out to be a little brighter than those that I used for the bead featured in Beadwork Magazine, but I kind of like how it makes the whole bead look brighter:
Finally, this one is Patina Lagoon, because I can't get enough of these matte metallic patina beads:
Each Dewdrop kit contains enough materials to make a total of five Dewdrop beaded beads, or alternatively, one Dewdrop beaded bead and one Dewdrop bracelet. Here's a bracelet in Silvery Amethyst:
Don't forget that the Dewdrop beaded bead is one of the five beaded beads required to enter Beadwork Magazine's 15th Anniversary Beaded Bead Contest. The deadline for entering is October 26!
I like the patina one the best, even better than the black rose one. Go figure. I like green, but that's not news, now is it?
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you like it - I almost didn't kit it, but I just couldn't ignore the idea of buying those tiny patina drops in bulk. It's too bad Miyuki doesn't make them in the normal 3.4 mm size.
