Get ready to make a grand statement with Allie's Whimsical Earrings. She weaves together various Potomac Crystals around a bezeled Rivoli to create a design that is fancy, fabulous, and flourishing.

Materials Used To make The  Project

Quick Project Steps

Using a size 12 needle, begin with 36 11/0 delica beads and tie into a knot. Start a circular peyote stitch, pick up another 11/0, skip over the next bead in the circle and go down bead number three. Pick up another 11/0, skip the next bead and thread down the one after. Continue like this around the circle. Watch the Whimsical Earrings tutorial to see how Allie switches to right angle weave with 15/0s to finish the bezel for the Potomac crystal rivoli and adds embellishment and fringes with various crystals. Bring your thread and needle to the top of the project, make sure you are in the middle of the top so your earring hangs properly. Add the wire guard with some seed beads and another crystal. Sew up through the beads one more time and then bring the thread back down to the tail and tie off.
