Rattan Band - Turquoise Bronze & Pewter

RATTAN BAND

  • 11/0 seed beads Miyuki "Duracoat Pewter" (4222)
  • 8/0 seed beads Miyuki "Duracoat Pewter" (4222))
  • 11/0 seed beads Toho "Opaque Turquoise Blue Marbled" (1207)
  • DiamonDuo beads "Turquoise Bronze"



For today's "Rattan Band", I decided to take a chance and use Toho seed beads for the accent color because I didn't have a matching Miyuki color. I was lucky that these particular beads didn't cause any issues and I don't recommend using Toho seed beads for the main color. They are too big and will cause the beadwork to do crazy things. 

In case you are wondering why I have listed 8/0 seed beads in today's and yesterday's bead lists, that's because I added one on each end of my bracelets for attaching a jump ring for the clasp.

You can buy Deb's "Rattan Band" pattern HERE at Around the Beading Table.

  1. Both of these Rattan Bands are lovely. Turquoise Bronze is one of my favorite finishes. Nice to see posts from you on beading again.
