Lenka Bindzar, owner of Raven’s Journey, specializes in Czech glass beads. The quality, expertise, detail and modernizing she puts into her Czech bead designs helps to obtain an overall mission of continuing Czech Republic tradition and customer satisfaction. Check out these new Raven’s Journey Czech beads we’ve just added to our inventory!

Before starting Raven’s Journey, Lenka’s own journey started when she settled in Seattle, WA from Czechoslovakia. While looking for beads to make a collar for her dog, she stumbled upon a shop that sold Czech beads. With the small selection she encountered, she traveled back home in search of finding Czech bead manufacturers. She happened to find a small family-owned bead pressing company. And from there, her ideas flourished and has been designing and creating pressed glass beads since. You can see the hard work she puts continuing her mission to “work closely with artisans in the Czech Republic to continue the tradition of creating and producing the finest quality glass beads in the world.” We are proud to support the tradition and history of Czech glass beads!

We love the coin beads with pressed lotus, owls, skulls and bird bead.

One of the most popular Czech bead shapes are rondelles. Some mimics a picasso finish, opaque, translucent and more. These Czech beads has an organic look and color, making them easy to use and pair up with different beads like gemstones, boro glass, pearls, etc.

Czech rondelles: Z018261, Z018263, Z018266, Z018270, Z018280, Z018310, Z018311, Z018314, Z018315, Z018349, Z018363

One of our favorites are the beautiful Czech Hibiscus. They are prefect for summer jewelry designing or for flower-lovers! And they come in a smaller 7mm size. Try these hibiscus beads with Porcelain beads, Swarovski crystals and wood beads.

Czech hibiscus: Z018246, Z018247, Z018248, Z018254, Z018255, Z018256, Z018257, Z018258, Z018259, Z018260

What is your favorite Czech beads and how do you like to use them?

New to GoodyBeads are the oh-so popular Czech Carrier Beads. We have an easy even count peyote stitch pattern to get you started.

Czech Carrier beads are making waves in the DIY jewelry making world. They have two holes and can be used for a stretch bracelet or intricate necklaces! Because they have two holes, they can be easily used in your favorite bead-stitching projects! The typical way to style carrier beads is bead stitching a tube of beads or seed beads to encase the carrier beads. We are using the classic peyote stitch tubes to slide over the carrier beads. Check out this tutorial and pattern ideas below!

Even Count Peyote Stitch

For these patterns, we used an even count peyote stitch pattern and created tubes to side over Czech Carrier beads. Check out this simple illustration below to understand how to do an even count peyote stitch pattern. Don’t forget to PIN this for later!

Peyote Stitch Patterns

We adore these colors! We used four colors to design these 15 different patterns. Make sure to DOWNLOAD PDF of these patterns and a quick tutorial of how to create tubes to add to your Czech carrier beads.

Plus, you can download this Carrier Bead Pattern Template, where you can create your own designs!

Glue/Adhesive

This step is important because this avoids the tubes from sliding off the carrier beads. We would recommend using GS Hypo Cement (A007224). It has a precision applicator, which helps get into small openings and a cap that stops overflowing glue from escaping and drying up. You have two options of when to add your glue.

First option is before you zip up your tube pattern. Apply glue to both sides of the carrier bead and lay it in the middle of your pattern. Fold your pattern around the carrier bead and sew the ends to zip up the tube patter.

Second option is after making your peyote stitch tubes. Complete your tubes and slide carrier bead half way through, still exposing the bead. Run your glue around the exposed area of the bead, let it sit for a second or two and slide the tube over the rest of the carrier bead.

Let it the beads dry completely before using. Make sure to read instructions for more information.

Pearly Pastel Necklace

Here’s a simple necklace we created with the beads we made above. It’s strung on using Fine Soft Flex Beading Wire (FTBW0001) and ivory miracle beads.

First we cut a 4 feet piece of wire. Fed one end of the wire through a 2′ piece of chain (this will be the extender chain for the necklace) and centered the chain at the middle of the beading wire. Slide on a 2mm crimp tube and using the Magic Crimper (TL00288) crimped the tube into a bead. You can check out our previous blog post HERE about the tool. Next, with both ends, slide on (25) size 4mm ivory miracle bead, (3) size 6mm miracle bead and (3) size 8mm miracle bead. Slide a 6mm miracle bead on each wire thread and slide on first carrier bead. As you can see we added a miracle bead in between each carrier bead. from the top strand, we used size 6mm miracle bead and the bottom used size 8mm miracle bead. This helps the necklace take shape. Reverse the pattern of strung beads to the end and crimp off the end with a lobster claw clasp.

Items used for necklace: SB02334, SB00269, SB01822, SB02346, A006587, A015211, Z016460, A007224, A011534, FTBW0001, TC01897 (2), A010140 (2 pks), A010141, A010142 (2 pks) and CHZ0101

We are loving these Czech Paisley duos two-hole beads. Their shape makes them versatile that you can turn or flip them when bead stitching and create a whole new design! We have two simple bead stitch bracelet designs you can easily make with Czech Paisley Duos.

Paisley Stripe Bracelet

This is a simple bracelet you loop your beading threads and make a knot to bring everything together. We love how these paisley beads cup each other nicely like a yin yang. Use two different colors to make this Paisley Stripe Bracelet.

Paisley Leather Wrap Bracelet

We used the same two Paisley colors to stitch a leather wrap bracelet. Find the leather wrap bracelet tutorial from the How to Make a Leather Wrap Bracelet blog post to help make this bracelet and to determine length of desired wraps you want. We first started with adding 5 beads of one color and then one of the second paisley color. Repeat this pattern then gradate in the middle of your bracelet to 5 of the second color and one of your first color.

With the popularity of the Czech Honeycomb two-hole bead, comes the Honeycomb Jewel bead. Here are two projects where we used these beads to make a bead-stitched bracelet with DiamonDuos and as a wire cuff bracelet with bead wire.

What makes Czech Honeycomb Jewel beads different than other honeycomb beads? Honeycomb jewel beads are faceted on one side, to give depth and dimension, and flat on the other.

Honeycomb Jewel and DiamonDuo Bracelet with Tutorial

We paired the Honeycomb Jewel shape with DiamonDuos, which plays off each others’ faceted look. We took the Chalk Lazure Jewel (Z018620) and gave this bracelet a pop with a bold hue of the Pastel Montana Blue DiamonDuo (SB03347).

SuperDuo Star Blooms Poinsettia Necklace and Earrings

Tutorial and Components

Created by our in-house designer So Vang, you can make this holiday theme, star blooms necklace and earrings set with this FREE illustrated tutorial.

Necklace Extra Tip

When you have finished stringing together your five components, we have two options on how to attach your 24” chain.

First, you can sew the chain at the end of the SuperDuo as shown in our photo below. Refer to the illustrated tutorial or image to see that you connect the chain end to the SuperDuo across from the connected SuperDuo of your side poinsettia component.

Or, secondly you can use a small gauge jump ring to slide through theSuperDuo like how we’ve shown here. However, not all SuperDuo holes are large enough for the jump ring to slide through. If it does not, going with the first option will be best to adding your chain.

SuperDuo Southwestern Star Bloom Style

Don’t think you are limited to just a holiday-hued necklace. Try out different combinations of colors and make it your own. We’ve used turquoise and deep coral to create ours above.

Featured in GoodyBeads July 2016 Trends, we are still loving the versatility of DiamonDuos especially when we pair them with licorice leather. Along with a FREE beaded loop tutorial, we will show you how to create DiamonDuo beaded loops and incorporate them in your licorice leather bracelets.

DiamonDuo Beaded Loop Tutorial

Download our DiamonDuo Beaded Loops pattern tutorial to get started. Create different color combinations with DiamonDuos, Czech O-beads and size 8/0 Miyuki round beads. Here are some examples of how we used these DiamonDuo Beaded Loops.

Copper Lights

Items used in bracelet: SB03334, SB03333, SB01916, SB00098, A015841 (2), A015859, Z010806, A006588, A011455, A015210

From our July 2016 trend, we featured this stunning bracelet with cork licorice leather. We made three loops with Matte Copper DiamonDuos and 2 with Matte Gold DiamonDuos. After cutting the cork licorice leather to your wrist size, slide on your beaded loops in alternating colors towards the center. We added a black rubber o-ring on both sides of the five loops to keep them in place. Glue on a clasp and let it dry for 24 hours before you wear. Crazy-neat, eh?

Golden Brights

Items used in bracelet:SB03319, SB02035, SB00002, A012987, A016424 (2), A015606, A015314, A006587, A011455 & A015210.

Using different colors can create a different look to your licorice leather. We created our DiamonDuo beaded loops using hues of metallic golds and white.

After we made five beaded loops, we cut our licorice leather to size. With some Super-lon Bead Cord (A012987), we wrapped the center section of our licorice leather with gold cord. Glue as needed on back side. Slide on a rubber ring, the 5 beaded loops and another rubber ring. ALL centered on the wrapped gold cord.  Glue on a clasp and you have this flashy bracelet.
