Instructions

1. Take a comfortable length of stretched beading thread ( we used about 60cm), and thread on a beading needle. Thread 1A, 6B,  loop around and pass back down the 1A - to create a little circle of seed beads, leave a 10cm tail ( photo 1 ) 

2. Thread 3B, 1A, 1B, 1A, 1B, 1C, 1 B, 1C,1B, 1C, 1B, 1C, 1B, 1C, 1B, 1A, 1B, 1A, 1B, 3A ( photo 2 )

3. Loop up and through the 1A from step 1 ( photo 3 )

4. Pass around through the 5B again and down through the 1A ( photo 4 )

5. Pass down through the 3B, 1A, 1B, 1A, 1b ( photo 5 )

6. Pick up 5B, miss the 1C, and pass through the next 1B ( photo 6 )

7. Repeat the previous step ( photo 7 )

8. Pick up 6B, circle around and pass through the 3rd B you just picked up. This creates a little circle ( photo 8 )

9. Pick up 2B, missing out the 1C, pass through the next 1B ( photo 9 )

10. Repeat step 6 twice more ( photo 10 )

11. Pass up through the next 1A,1B, 1A, 3B 

12. Circle around the entire thread path twice more to strengthen. Trim the beading thread close to the beads, so the end isn't visible ( photo 11 )

13. Using chain nosed pliers, open up the loop of an ear wire, and loop it onto the top of your earring, close the loop ( photo 12 )

14. Repeat all the steps again to make a matching earring!

OR, you could make another one, and thread a chain through the top loop to make a matching necklace! 

Then we carried on making it in other colour ways...
