This tutorial is perfect if you want to create an eXtra Large beaded bead but not one quite as big as the Colossal.

Measuring 19mm in diameter these XL beads are created by weaving seed beads around a wooden core. In the tutorial I will guide you through the process of creating a beaded bead row-by-row. With colour step-by-step photographs this tutorial is suitable for beginners.

My unique technique uses size 11 beads with strategically placed size 15 beads to create a smooth round bead. I recommend Japanese seed beads for this project (Miyuki or Toho). You'll also need 15mm wooden beads.

Once purchased, I will email the tutorial to you as a PDF file. You'll need Adobe Reader which you can download at no cost from www.adobe.com

Please note: You are purchasing the instructions only, not the finished beads. The photographs are examples of what you can create once you learn the basic technique.
