Wisteria (purple Almond shaped set)

Blooming Wisteria


After long break I created something, My friend ordered this few months back but due to some unexpected turns of event I could not get enough time and perfect mental and emotional condition to create something. However at last it is ready and I was amaze looking at the final product. I tried many variation and many arrangement and finally something satisfy to my creative perfectionist heart and most importantly my friend loved it she was excited to wear that and her happiness was my biggest reward. I am thankful to her for trusting me for this creation and giving me this opportunity.


This is the final product , that has been created using rainbow and purple  shaded seed beads, purple swarovski , purple drops and purple round stones.

capricho bracelet

The moment I saw tutorial for this bangle (posted by beading for perfectionist ) I could not stop myself and ran to bead shop to find material. Actually I was to much into rush that i did not read instruction carefully. She said she is using seed bead but her seed bead seems smaller comparision to my seed beads i was confuse but thought may be its because of zooming of camera or something like that. Actually she was using miyuki delicas . However when I created my bangle it turned out beautiful but little heavy in weight and bit bigger for my small hands.
The same moment i decided i will recreate this for small wrist like mine .

When first time i saw this earrings i fell in love with it. I tried to find Tutorial for it and found one though I was not happy with the result as it was not holding it's shape.
Then I decided to try different stitching style and voila it worked.




The green earrings are made using delica though delicas and seed beads share same size pattern but I learned through my experience that delicas are smaller then seed beads.







Still something was missing and I was not fully satisfied with whatever i have created so I decided to use seed bead size 11' and give little twist using dangles.






I searched my beads collection that I could find something in red color that could enhance the beauty of this earrings. I really did not want to run to bead shop to buy something that small and end up buying more stuff then I needed. thank god that day my stars were shining high and I found these beautiful dangling beads.
The final look was quiet pleasing to my eyes though still i want to make few changes to this design and recreate something better.
