Ochrana Pattern

Ochrana is an intermediate-advanced beading project which combines some of my unique geometric beadwork techniques with plenty of sparkle for a versatile and adaptable necklace of jewellery as well as a matching pendant and earrings.

The 48-page instructions cover bezelling the central Swarovski crystal (adding extra crystals as you do so) and then turning the centrepiece into a pendant which can be strung onto the specially designed beaded chain and further accessorised with extra adornment.

This is an intermediate-advanced project which uses Peyote and Herringbone Stitches along with some size 15 seed beads.

A detailed requirements list will be included but for guidance:

  • 4mm Swarovski Bicones #5328
  • One or two x 14mm Swarovski Sea Urchins #1695 (or you can substitute 14mm Rivolis #1122)
  • Optional - One x 20mm Swarovski Cosmic Ring #4139 (or another ring or you can make a beaded one - instructions are included)
  • Optional - One x 28mm Swarovski Spike Pendant #6480 (this is optional and can be replaced with another large drop or left off completely)
  • Size 15 Miyuki seed beads
  • Size 11 Cylinder beads e.g. Aikos, Delicas or Treasures

All tutorials contain full instructions and tips as well as check lists for all tools, materials & techniques needed to help you shop and plan.
