Crocheted Beaded Rope Lariat with Leave Fringe

Labels: | at 9:47 PM

Hi peeps.... how is everyone getting on? Today, 30th of August is the first day of Hari Raya and tomorrow we'll be celebrating Malaysia's Independence Day not forgetting that it is also the school holidays. I think most of us are already in the holiday mood and back in their respective hometown for those celebrating Hari Raya. Anyway.... please be careful and have a pleasant and safe journey to where you're heading.

Just wanna share with you this crocheted beaded rope lariat which took me almost two weeks to complete (with breaks in between of course).


The long beaded rope is crocheted from white seed beads and the leave fringe is painstakingly stitched one by one to form the tassles.



The length of the beaded rope to end of fringe is approximately 40" long. The rope alone is 33.5" and the tassle is between 6.5" - 7" long. Diameter of rope is 0.6cm.

This lariat can be made shorter or longer depending on preference. It can also be turned into a belt if required.

Thanks for dropping by and have a wonderful week ahead!

Beaded Rose Quartz Cabochon ~ Pendant

Labels: | at 3:55 PM

Hello again! Here's another piece that I've completed. As a matter of fact, this is the first piece that I started on before the beaded turquoise donut pendant but crocheting the all-white beaded rope necklace took a lot of my time (stringing very long lengths of japanese seed beads & then crocheting it)

I've use peyote stitch for this Rose Quartz cabochon (30 x 40 mm) with small fringes around it. The opened back of the cab is also stitched up and looks as good as the front.

Beaded Turquoise Donut Pendant

Labels: | at 10:15 PM

Okay, here is something that I got done over the weekend. This is my first peyote stitch beaded pendant and more is to come. I have always admire those beautiful beaded pendants in Etsy and have even thought of owning a piece, but now that I have already learned (through trial and error and wasted threads!) the peyote stitch, I am gonna make one for myself.





This pendant is stitched with size 11 & 15 Miyuki seed beads and Turquoise Donut as the focal.

I hope your week is off to a wonderful start!
Have a great day!

Beaded Stitched Bracelet ...... with seed beads

Labels: | at 10:03 PM

Okay, a couple of stuff that I got done over the weekend ..........

This is my first bead stitched bracelet (Colour Swirls) from Marcie Abney's design (Beadwork Magazine, June/July 2010). The pattern of swirling colours in this fluid bracelet makes them complex, the look is easy to achieve by stitching multi-coloured rounds of circular peyote stitch.

I made many pieces but a few was unsuccessful due to broken seed beads as needle tried to pass through the holes and had to stitch them all over again.
I got carried away after the first bracelet and did another piece just to practice on the technique (as they say.... practice makes perfect, right?)

These bracelets are so light in weight that you don't realise wearing
it on your wrist.







Thanks for looking !

Bead Crocheted Necklace

Labels: | at 4:02 PM

Hello...... thanks for dropping by! I know it's been more than a week since you heard from me last but bead stitching time have taken me away from the computer and deny me the time to play with my wires. In addition, I've been having problem with poor quality pictures ever since I dropped my hp camera on numerous occassions. Getting a DSRL (or is it DRSL?) camera is my last resort as my son has also been persuading me to get one.

Well.... anyway.... am still on bead stitching and will post new pics as soon as I complete a piece or two of my projects. Here's two necklaces which was completed about a week ago or so and is already listed at www.handmade.my/EmilySecretPassions.


Bead crocheted necklace (Turkish crochet) with silver twisted bugle beads
& purplish seed beads and Amethyst gemstone chips as links.


Bead crocheted necklace with black bugle beads/ red seed beads with Red Coral gemstone chips as links.

Please convo me if you want the necklace to be replaced with other colours.

That's it for now. Have a wonderful weekend all!
