Hello September! How on Earth did that happen?! As summer draws to an end we get to look back on the beautiful projects you’ve made throughout August and look forward to warm, Autumnal tones appearing in our jewellery making. We want to give a special mention to Abbie on her fantastic Cellini Spiral necklace – It’s a tricky technique to master but you nailed it! We love it when your share your projects – especially from our weekly Take a Make Break video tutorials! Keep posting your pictures on our Facebook page or email your recent project to katrina@beadsdirect.co.uk for the next installment of Handmade By You.

Fab brooches Shirley!

Fantastic Cellini Spiral! Well done Abbie!

We love the mix of beads in Aprils gorgeous cuff design.

It looks like Nikki’s been inspired to make one of Linda Jones’ hear decorations. We LOVE it!

The wire really compliments the beads here – Stunning wire-work Anne!

What a gorgeous wave pattern with Preciosa Tile Beads! Made by Dani.

This simple – yet element jewellery set by Sarah would match a fab boho outfit.

This necklace by Kumi Randall reminds me of coral shorelines!
