Deep blue water colours, amethyst and rose – both relaxing and refined – bringing out the essence of her grace. Designed by Louise Jensen from Wishware Beads.
STEP ONE
Using Tigertail, cut six strands at about 50cm each. With these, crimp on the sections of crystals at intervals, referring to the diagram for direction in regards to the placement of the beads. Make the strands in the following colours: Amethyst/pink with the white 8mm bicones; Montana blue/dark blue with the 8mm Montana bi-cones; aquamarine/aquamarine satin with milky white 8mm bi-cones.
STEP TWOOnce all the strands have been completed, crimp at the end of all the strands, enter a Charlotte end at the tips. Once all the three strands are inside, crimp each one individually and close the two sides of the Charlotte cup together to hide the ends. Design note: You may need to use an awl to make the size of the hole in the Charlotte end larger in this step.
