DIY Beadable Column Bead with Twist Off Bezel
One of our newest products and one of So’s favorites are the new Beadable Accessories: Column Bead with Twist Off Bezel. Use size 11/0 Delica seed beads to create a tubular design and encase it around the bezel area of the column bead. Plus, the bead has a twist off side that you can easily create your tube and slide it on the bezel and twist sides back on.
Make a cute and colorful necklace with one two or three column beads!
Even Peyote Count Stitch
For the column beads, you will be creating a tubular design with an Even Count Peyote Stitch. Below is an example how to stitch an Even Count Peyote design:
Beadable 10mm Column Bead & Pattern Template
To use the 10mm column bead, you can get them in Gold plated (Z001434) and Rhodium plated (Z001430). Use an Even Count Peyote Stitch starting with 6 Delica seed beads. Then you will be making 30 rows and then wrap pattern into a tube shape by stitching and zip up the sides. (Check out our previous blog on how we made a tubular design and zipping up the sides HERE.)
As a side note, you can create a wider tube starting with 7 seed beads if your design needs an odd count stitch.
Beadable 18mm Column Bead & Pattern Template
To use the 18mm column bead, you can get them in Gold Plated (Z001456) and Rhodium Plated (Z001453). Use an Even Count Peyote Stitch starting with 12 Delica seed beads. Then you will be making 30 rows and then wrap pattern into a tube shape by stitching and zip up the sides.
