This Secret Beadalong is designed to be beaded over 24 days... and you also have the option of signing-up for a video & written version (which will contain 35+ online videos you can watch at any time and again & again as needed) rather than just this written version.

It's time for another Secret Beadalong!

The Secret Beadalong is designed to be done over 24 days (the 'beading-along-together' part is 1st-24th December 2025 but you can bead it as & when you desire once you have the instructions) and each day will take around 30-90 minutes beading to complete.

The project is never Christmas or seasonal and though the end result is a secret I can reveal it is a large ornament with option stand and jewellery variations...

The full requirements list is not complicated and only contains items you should easily be able to find (or which may already be in your stash). The general requirements are:

• Size 11 Cylinder beads e.g Delicas or Aikos
• 3mm Bicone crystals (180 of them)
• Beading needle and thread of choice (I recommend a flexible thread and size 10 needle as explained in the requirements)

The project is suitable for intermediate plus levels of beader (you will need knowledge of Peyote Stitch and be comfortable following instructions and repetition...

The timetable is:

• Within 2 working days (usually much sooner): you'll be added to the email update list and receive a welcome email
• An hour later: you'll receive the detailed requirements list along with colour scheme advice
• An hour later: you'll receive the 'Essentials' file with all the details of the techniques, terminology & tips you'll need
• An hour later: The full instructions will be sent out for anyone who wants to dive in early (as long as you promise to keep it a secret!)
• December 1st 2025: The 'beading-along-together' days begin...

This pattern is available at a discount to my Newsletter subscribers (please enter the code from my newsletter).

You can follow the progress of the beadalong on my Secret Beadalong Facebook group and there you can also see some of what has been beaded during previous Beadalongs (and you can find the old Facebook page to see older ones here).
