Triangle Bead Earrings — Beading PDF Tutorial | Two-Hole Triangle Beads

Two-hole triangle beads arranged in a circle — the perfect succulent flower.

The Cactus Flower Earrings were born during a live design session, when two-hole triangle beads arrived in a surprise bead package and immediately suggested a blooming cactus. A bezelled ss39 rivoli sits at the centre, 3mm rounds ring the outer petals, and a pearl drop bead hangs from the base. Botanical, geometric, and surprisingly quick to stitch.
