Learn to create a delicate pearl heart pendant using right-angle weave (RAW) techniques. This versatile design can also be adapted into brooches, barrettes, or charms. Use 4mm pearls, 11/0 seed beads, Dragon Thread, a size 10 or 11 needle, and wire guards for secure connections. Master RAW for building the heart shape, adding embellishments for detail, and securing the pendant with wire guards. Customize with different pearl sizes (e.g., 6mm or 8mm), seed bead colors, and arrangement patterns for a personalized touch.
Gather Materials:
4mm pearls. 11/0 seed beads. Dragon Thread (size 8). Size 10 or 11 beading needle. Wire guards (optional, for hanging).
Create the First RAW Unit:
String four 4mm pearls onto your thread. Tie a knot to form the first right-angle weave (RAW) unit.
Add More RAW Units:
Thread three more pearls and connect them to the first unit by threading through adjacent beads. Repeat to create a total of five RAW units for one side of the heart.
Build the Second Side:
Mirror the RAW pattern on the opposite side of the heart. Connect the two sides by threading through the beads in the center column.
Complete the Frame:
Add pearls at the top and bottom edges to close the heart shape. Reinforce the structure by threading through all beads multiple times.
Embellish with Seed Beads:
Add 11/0 seed beads along the edges of the heart for definition. Create a rounded loop at the bottom using seed beads to enhance the design.
Attach Wire Guards:
Add wire guards at the top for durability if you plan to hang the pendant. Use seed beads to secure the wire guards in place.
Finalize the Pendant:
Tighten all threads, trim any excess, and check for symmetry. Attach a chain, jump ring, or earring finding to complete the pendant.
