Bedouin Beaded Necklace Part One: Bedouin Beaded Necklace Part One

Bedouin beaded necklace
Part One of the Bedouin Beaded Necklace will consist of making the strip that runs down the center of each of the side sections and the large diamond-shaped center piece. The beads used here are called "Three Cut" beads, as they have a flat facet ground into three places on the bead to add sparkle and shine. These beads are usually classified as a size 9/0 bead and most often come from the Czech Republic. The Three Cuts used in this project were an aurora borealis finish shade of pinky-orange and a regular finish jet black.
