✿ Cherry Blossom Festival Box: https://bit.ly/CherryBlossomBox ✿ Instant Download Pattern Available Here: https://bit.ly/RenaissancePattern ✿ Hey everyone! It’s Gina from https://orchidandopal.com. In today's video I share a tutorial for a an original multi-component statement necklace, which you can make with the contents of the Cherry Blossom Festival Bead Box from ‪@Beadingschool‬ and I. We will start by making component #1, which includes a bezel made of Vexolo beads, 4m pearls, and seed beads, that surround an 8mm nacre pearl cabochon. Three of these components will be needed, in combination with two of our 2nd component. Those include a cushion cut crystal stone with a seed bead bezel. Once all of the components are made, we will put them together, and create a beaded chain with seed beads and Mini GemDuo beads.

I have the utmost respect for other artists, and the time/energy behind their original designs. I will always make a point to give credit where credit is due because I expect the same in return. Of course, in some rare circumstances, artists' beading designs may overlap in certain ways; after all, there are only so many combinations in which beads may be put together. It's possible for artists to simply “be on the same wavelength.” "Great minds think alike," and all that. :) ✿ Selling: You may sell any of the jewelry you have made from my tutorials.
