Diamond Lights

posted: Wednesday, 26 February 2025

Rivoli Beadwork Volume 2 (just like Volume 1) has 5 different themed chapters for the projects ('Seed Beads', 'Pearls', 'Geometric', 'Extra Sparkle' and 'Shaped Beads').

Shown here is one of many series of projects from its pages: 'Diamond Lights' which features in the 'More Sparkle' chapter.

One of my favourite things to do in beading is combine geometric beadwork with sparkle and this shape & technique is something I've been playing with for a good 20 years now.. and I'll never tire of it!

This time I played with the basic concept around 8mm and 14mm Rivolis (with details of other sizes included) and made a wide variety of earrings, pendants, ornament, bracelets, pendants & necklaces, all of which are fully explained in the book (along with the details of the gorgeous colours I used).

The book is available direct from me (it will be signed) or direct from Amazon who will print & mail out a brand-new copy just for you (just search for the book name or my name on their website).

It is available in 3 variations (if you buy a physical one you get the digital one included):
