This beaded necklace tutorial from Huong Handmade is a great way to create a delicate, high-end piece of jewelry using simple materials. The pattern features staggered leaves that lead toward a central star motif, giving the whole piece a graceful, flowing look. It’s a dainty design that works well for formal events. Since it’s made with standard seed beads and bicones, it’s approachable even if you’re relatively new to beading.
To get started, you’ll use 11/0 golden seed beads paired with black bicones in two different sizes to create depth and contrast. The focal point is a large, black faceted teardrop bead that hangs from the center star, catching the light as you move. Finishing the necklace with a fancy box clasp adds a professional, secure touch that ties the whole elegant design together. It’s a satisfying project that results in a classic accessory you’ll actually want to wear.
