Danielle, You have hit the mark again. What a lovely pattern with the sparkly 2mm fire polish and gorgeous colors for the 8/0 round seed beads. Thanks for sharing your creative beady talent. Hugs from FL.🐢🌞🌴

Hooray!! I made one last night using a 3x5mm rondelle at the bottom, and that worked nicely too!

They look great on you Danielle! I’m trying so hard to get bead weaving down! Lol I kept trying! I just love this design! Thanks for sharing! 🥰💕

That's what we ALL do! Learning something new always means we'll make mistakes along the way. As adults we expect to do things perfectly right away - but you always learn something new when you fail. I fail ALL the time!

Darling style.❤

Is there a way to do without the thread showing up between the two 8o beads?

[@JillWisemanDesigns]

You won't see the thread once the project is done. No one is looking at your earring from 6 inches away the way you are when you are making it. That said, with this combo of beads, no - there will always be a thread bridge between the beads. If you substitute a size 11/0 seed bead for the fire polish, that will go away, but the proportions of the piece will be quite different.

I was wondering if you had kits available for this project?

[@JillWisemanDesigns]

I've been getting so many questions about that so I'm going to work on picking colors and ordering supplies for kits this weekend! Hopefully we will get them made within two weeks.
