The Fire Flower Pendant tutorial walks viewers through the creation of a stunning, multi-layered pendant using SuperDuos, Quadralentils (4-hole lentil beads), seed beads (15/0, 11/0), 3mm fire-polished beads, and crystals. The design starts with a circular base of SuperDuos and seed beads, expands with Quadralentils and crystals, and finishes with layered embellishments and a decorative beaded bail. Though the pendant includes many steps, each is beginner-friendly and explained clearly.
Create the Central Base Ring:
Add alternating: 1 × SuperDuo → 1 × 11/0 seed bead. Repeat this pattern until you have 12 SuperDuos and 12 seed beads in total. Form into a ring and reinforce.
Step Up to the Second Hole:
Go through the second hole of a SuperDuo to begin building upward.
Add Quadralentils:
Between each SuperDuo, add: 1 × 11/0 → 1 × Quadralentil → 1 × 11/0. Stitch all the way around.
Switch to Second Holes of Quadralentils:
Move through the side holes of the Quadralentils. Between each, add: 1 × 15/0 → 1 × crystal (3mm or 2mm) → 1 × 15/0.
Embellish Around Crystals:
Add 11/0 seed beads around each crystal to create an outer embellishment circle.
Build a Second Ring of Embellishment:
Exit the outer 11/0s and add more 11/0s between key points (top of crystals or Quadralentils). This reinforces the structure and adds more visual texture.
Add Fire-Polished Beads:
Between each Quadralentil, add: 1 × fire-polished bead (3mm). This forms a sparkling border around the pendant.
Embellish Between Fire-Polished Beads:
Between each fire-polished bead, add: 1 × 15/0 → 1 × 11/0 → 1 × 15/0. This softens and decorates the edge.
Create the Beaded Bail Loop:
Choose a top center Quadralentil or crystal. Add: 3–5 × 11/0s → 1 crystal → 3–5 × 11/0s (adjust loop size as desired). Stitch back into the base and reinforce 2–3 times.
Secure & Finish:
Weave through multiple beads to reinforce the structure. Tie half-hitch knots between beads to secure. Trim or burn thread ends.
