Bead & Jewellery Magazine Issue 124 Vorige editie

We start with our cover piece, and these show-stopping earrings from Ruxandra Puşcaş sparkle like the sun hitting the waves on a hot summer day. I’ve already made a pair, and even though they are super glam, they’re also very wearable and look fabulous with a summer dress for an evening out with friends. Take a dip in the ocean with Alison Tarry and her Octopus handcuff. This piece is fun to make and looks amazing. Next, we have some delightful earrings from Laura Embry and Anzelika Häberli. Each pair is completely different, yet they are both inspired by the country of Morocco. Laura’s earrings remind us of mosaic tiles, and Anzelika’s are all about bold colours. Why not try a bit of metal clay with Tracey Spurgin? Tracey has a tropical-inspired pendant using UV resin. If you’re looking for a jewellery set that will see you through multiple events, look no further than this sparkly one from Rangashrii Santhanam. Marina Nadke joins us again with another fabulous necklace designed in Chenille stitch with a pretty fringe. New to Bead & Jewellery is Veronika Královičová with her delightful sunset necklace. I’ve teamed up with Beadingschool again to play with one of their fabulous Academy boxes, and I hope you love the butterfly-inspired design I’ve made for you. Last but not least is Laura Binding and her beautiful chainmail bracelet. If you’ve always thought chainmail was something you’d like to do but never picked up the pliers, now is your chance.
