Crystal Galaxy Beads

Create amazing crystal beads that sparkle like diamonds! In class, you will learn right-angle-weave directions to smoothly cover various sizes of Swarovski and vintage pearls with Japenese round 11/0 seed beads. This stitch allows many different ways to further embellish them with Swarovski bicone and round crystals, in sizes 2, 2.5, 3 and 4 mm for a variety of shapes, styles and sizes. The glimpses of pearls under the crystals add to the lavish effect. They can be used as earrings, pendants, connected with chain or strung to complete your own unique designs.
