I love making these RAW beads. The designs you can make with them are endless! Trying the technique with different types of beads, round crystals, top drilled beads or even seed beads just add to the amazing things you can make!

Peyote is a classic stitch and is widely used. It is a technique originated by Native Americans of the Southwest United States. They used it to adorn objects used in religious ceremonies as well as everyday life. We will be learning the basic stitch and create a beautiful bracelet with a Swarovski Button closure.

I decided I would introduce a few more easy stitch projects into the Karla Kam program. I found the pattern for these through an online newsletter. The pattern called for seed beads, but then I decided 4mm round crystals would give them more appeal. I will also provide other beading projects on line using the ladder stitch!

This are fun earrings to wear and to make! I got the idea for this cluster drop from one of our Dion that worked for us in Kansas City! She had actually made a pendant using this technique and I have made some of those before, but why not earrings?

A customer asked how to make a 3 stranded bracelet end cleanly into a toggle! Well I am not sure if this what she had in mind, but this is my solution, for now anyway. I have used this technique for multi stranded necklaces but not a bracelet. I am pleased with the result and I hope this will be good option for ending a 3 stranded bracelet into a toggle cleanly!

I got the idea of using the cross over technique to connect donuts or loops together from a former colleague but did it Swarovski Cosmic Rings. After much trial and error I completed the bracelet and when I put it on it laid out so different than what I expected. The result is a loopy chain like look, almost lacey!www.auntiesbea ds.com

I take many questions on what is the right size bead cap to use on this bead, etc. My answer is always, how much of the bead do you want to cover? So I thought I would demonstrate several styles and sizes of bead caps on beads, so that you can get an idea of how to tell what size bead cap to use on your desired bead.
