‘Autumn colors’ bracelet

Today we will make a bracelet out of seed beads of two sizes and large round beads. I called it the ‘Autumn colors’ bracelet. To make this bracelet, we will use the beading technique of cubic right angle weave (CRAW).
We will need:
- 12 mm round beads of red color,
- size 8 Czech seed beads of orange color,
- size 10 Czech seed beads of yellow color,
- clasp for a bracelet,
- nylon fishing line 0.25 mm thick and one or two beading needles (depends on the stringing method you use for making CRAW).

Beaded monkey in brick stitch

Holidays are coming sooner than you think! Maybe, it’s time to think about Christmas? As you know, the next 2016 year is the year of the Monkey in the Chinese zodiac. That's why today we will make a beaded monkey. It is a simple beadwork that can be made rather quickly if you have some experience in brick stitch bead weaving. This monkey, for example, can be used as a Christmas decoration or you can give it to your friends and family members as a Christmas gift. Everybody for sure will like it.

We will need:
- size 8 seed beads of six colors; I used seed beads of brown, pink, white, gray, red and black colors;
- nylon fishing line 0.25 mm thick and two beading needles (as usual in brick stitch, you can do with one needle only).

Stretch bracelet in 3D beading technique

Today we will make a bracelet using the technique of 3D beading. This bracelet is very elastic, therefore it does not need a clasp. It stretches easily when being put on the arm and takes its usual shape instantly after that.
To make this bracelet we will need:
- size 8 seed beads of two colors (I used seed beads of turquoise and yellow colors);
- nylon fishing line 0.2 mm thick and two beading needles.
