Dewdrop Set
Dewdrop Set
The Dewdrop set features two-hole Tila beads and drop-shaped seed beads, all woven together in matching beaded beads and a bracelet for two designs in one pattern. The Dewdrop beaded bead is a tactile, barrel-shaped beaded bead woven using a variation of the fringe, circular peyote, and netting stitches. This versatile beaded bead can be woven in several different prismatic symmetries for a collection of different sizes. String one Dewdrop beaded bead on a headpin for a petite pendant, or gather several together in a stunning necklace! The Dewdrop bracelet is an excellent companion piece to the Dewdrop beaded bead, and is great for everyday wear. A simple bead substitution in both designs leads to a sleek look for just one of several possible variations
