Bejewelled Eggs Online Beading Course

Previously a live Zoom class, but now available as an online beading workshop!

Create a 3-Dimensional Fabergé style egg using peyote stitch. This locket-style pendant can open with a hinge and hidden clasp to reveal a surprise of your choice – or be stitched closed with a chiming ball inside for a musical pendant. These dinky eggs measure just 3.5cm high when complete.

There are lots of variations for this project; besides creating a hinged locket or a closed ornament, you can choose the type of clasp you use (magnetic or beaded); whether you use Crystaletts for the centre or bicones; whether to add an embellishment or even the size of the finished egg!

Most suitable for intermediate-advanced beaders. Previous experience of peyote in the round is helpful.

How does an online beading class work?

Upon booking you’ll be sent your PDF pattern, which includes links to videos throughout it to help you work through the project. The number of videos varies depending on the project but all of the trickiest parts will be covered with a demo.

There is an introductory YouTube video for each project, which I recommend you watch (you’ll need to be online for this). This video is also your virtual classroom – with the chat on the video being the place to ask questions and share ideas.

What’s more, I’ll also send you emails throughout the first month to see how you’re doing and to help you keep on track with your project.

This course includes:

• A comprehensive PDF pattern
• A playlist of videos to help you along the way
• A virtual classroom where you can ask questions
• Check-in emails to keep you motivated
