These StormDuo Wreaths are the perfect way to ring in the holidays. This PotomacBeads tutorial will show you just how easy it is to create your wreaths to make earrings, pendants and ornaments. You'll be ready to show off your Christmas spirit in style.
Using a size 10 needle, put a stop bead on your thread. Begin with ten StormDuos, each separated by alternating 11/0s and 15/0s. Make sure the duos are all facing the same direction. Bring the needle through the beginning three StormDuos and seed beads and pull into a wreath shape.
Step up to the top hole of the StormDuo and add two StormDuos between each of the duos from the first row. Follow along with Allie in the StormDuo Wreath tutorial to see how to decorate the wreath.
