BeadSmith Exclusive Bead Store Project
Kolympos Chain Bracelet & Earrings
by Carole Ohl
BeadSmith is providing Exclusive Bead Store Projects. This project features Cymbal Kolympos SuperDuo Bead Endings paired with Miyuki Tilas, Half Tilas & Quarter Tilas. Carole's pattern outlines making components using Miyuki Tila, Half Tila & Quarter Tila beads with a Kolympos Cymbal SuperDuo Bead Ending on each end. You then can connect the component to create a bracelet or necklace of any desired length. You can also use two components to create matching earrings. This colorway in the Gallery of Color Suggestions features 5 strands, each strand has 7 components and each component is made with a variety of Miyuki Tilas, Half Tilas and Quarter Tilas equaling the width of two complete Tila beads. Accordingly the materials list in the Gallery entry details the materials necessary to make a 5 strand bracelet. You can make a fewer strand bracelet or even a single strand bracelet. The components as instructed in the pattern add approximately a 7/8 of an inch in length to the beaded design.
