Paika Earrings...


This is a beautiful tutorial, Paika, available from Centperles


I fell in love with these earrings as soon as I saw them and just had to have the pattern.

This time an English version was available, unlike my Baronne Bracelet I made recently, which made life a whole lot easier!



The earrings are stitched using peyote and herringbone and are really quick and easy to make.

You only need size 11/0 delica beads and 3mm crystals and of course some earring hooks.


The pattern actually suggests adding a crystal drop to the bottom but I quite like it without.

I can't wait to make these in other colours.

I am thinking red, silver and turquoise could look quite striking.

Happy beading.
