Combine wire wrapping with stringing

I saw this interesting pearl necklace on toppearl.com, just thought I should share it with you! They use wire wrapping technique to connect a number of focal pearls with crystals, then finish off the rest of the necklace by regular stringing technique. An interesting technique combination. I can already think of many design ideas with this inspirations!

My bracelet design for Mother's Day

This is a bracelet that I designed for mother's day! There are Swarovski crystals in the center of the two motifs which are surrounded by pink glass roundels. Then the two motifs are connected by glass pearls and light pink seedbeads. You can view how to make the motif pattern by watching this video clip. I only made one layer of the pendant as seen in the video tutorial. And, instead of having 5 seedbeads in the center as seen in the video, I have 6.
