Posy beads

INSPIRATIONS: These very pretty beads are self-supporting and can be used to make necklaces, pendants, earrings and more. The Posy beaded beads were inspired by Spring being in the air.

SKILL LEVEL: You should be familiar with circular peyote stitch and netting - not for first time beaders but should find this a relatively easy project to follow for those with some experience. The beads are relatively quick to make.

STITCHES: Circular netting, peyote, fringe stitch .
