Dahlia Tassel Earrings — Beading PDF Tutorial | Peyote Stitch & Delica Beads

A beaded floral focal paired with a peyote-wrapped tassel — glamorous and completely wearable.

The Dahlia Tassel Earrings combine a circular beadwoven focal (built from fire polish beads, 3mm pearls and Delicas) with a striped peyote band that wraps and zips around the top of a luxurious tassel. The result is a long, dramatic earring that photographs beautifully and is surprisingly quick to make once you have your materials ready. The tutorial includes notes on tassel sizing and sourcing.
