My aunt-in-law asked me to make three rivoli pendants for her to give as gifts. This is last one. I tried a different bezel this time from Cathy’s Beadwork, which has a netted back. I added the crystals differently than in the pattern as I didn’t have that many. ...

The first three pendants are from tutorials by Jenny Pong. On the first one there is a tiny tiny Swarovski butterfly - 5mm (I didn’t realise when I ordered it how small it was!). I haven’t finished the necklace for the third pendant yet, it goes on the end of a lariat.

I felt like doing some beadweaving and thought I would have a go at Sandra D. Halpenny’s version of the Wheel bracelet which is found on Ruby’s Beadwork site.

First is a framed donut pendant using a tutorial by Eni Oken. I used a square jasper donut, with jasper and smoky quartz in the fringe.

This is a tutorial from JewelryLessons.com by Emi Kaz, who does amazingly intricate wire jewelry. I used a 12 mm Swarovski rivoli for the stone. It was very fiddly to wrap but I love the result!

The ring is from a tutorial on JewelryLessons.com. The wire bead cap is a tutorial by Iza Malczyk - very fiddly! The hardest thing about weaving such thin wire is when it gets brittle and snaps off. I don’t know if this will become earrings or a pendant.

I first tried a Tree of Life pendant using instructions from Bead Studio. Then I found this video tutorial on YouTube by Camille Sharon, which I think is a really pretty design. Wierdly enough, the night before I found this tutorial, I had a dream about a giant tree with an aura. ...

The cross and the earrings in the first two photos are from tutorials by the talented Iza Malczyk. I made the ankh for my husband’s birthday using the same weaving method as the cross.
