Two Peyote Stitch Cuff Bracelet

Boy, did this take a long time to do!. And after doing it, I am not sure I love it. But it was a good experience making this 2 drop peyote stitch bracelet.

This uses the new sharp triangle beads from Miyuki. These may not be in the US yet.

I used a 2 drop peyote stitch to do this piece

Peyote Stitch Tapered Edge???

How do you make an Edge like this in Peyote Stitch. I know I have to decrease and increase to get an tapered edge,....

I know there is a different stitch on the very outside, but what, I don't know. How to get the peyote to taper?

Zig Zag Bracelet

Green freshwater pearls, Delicas, the smallest size, DB29.
I have been studying bead stitching for the past few weeks.

I went down to the "Bead Town" in Tokyo, located in Asakusabashi, which is near the "Electric Town" where all the tourists go and Japanese go to buy anything electric. Asakusabashi is just one more stop on the train. There are over 40 shops selling all kinds of beads and semi-precious stones, plastic beads, anything. I went to Miyuki's shop, Bead Factory, and became a member, getting the right to buy beads at 50% off!! All the beads are in big jars and are sold in 8 gram portions.

Diagonal Peyote Stitch Bracelet

I got some new delica beads and I had these nice green freshwater pearls..... and I am starting with diagonal peyote stitch....

Diagonal Peyote Stitch Ear rings

These are cute diagonal peyote stitch ear rings with a freshwater pearl. The beads are actually more green looking than in the photos. And the single ear ring and pair are the same ear rings, the photos were taken with different lighting.  The Delica beads actually match the green/blue tint of the pearl.
