Lotus flowers exude beauty and grace. In Buddhist and Hindu philosophy, lotus is considered a sacred flower. Lotus symbolizes new beginnings and infinite potential. Because the lotus rises from unclean water at sunrise to blossom as a pure, uncontaminated flower, it is a symbol of purity and resurrection. The bud of the lotus symbolizes potential, specifically of a spiritual nature.
Lotus Necklace celebrates beauty, strength and grace of the lotus blossom. The large pendant is inspired by the lotus blossom, stitched with sparkling crystals, pearls and seed beads. The rope is inspired by the lotus vine and it is finished with a small lotus bud at each end. The spiral rope is finished with an embellished tassel and sliding strap which makes the necklace length adjustable.
Lots of new techniques like how to make an adjustable sliding strap, beadcaps and tassel tops with different beads and more!
Lotus kits have Swarovski crystal rivolis/crystals in them and will not be available for long. Limited quantities in stock.
Length: 25” rope, without including pendant drop. Techniques: Circular peyote, ladder, spiral stitch. Pendant: 1 ¾” by 4 ½”
Kit includes all the materials necessary to make a kit in the color of your choice, a tutorial with detailed step-by-step instructions in English, digital illustrations and photos to make beading this project a breeze!
Please note that for the Pink silver kit, the Amos beads (flat teardrop beads all around the edge) are slightly paler than in photo due to dye lot change. In the Aqua Gold color, I made the rope only in gold, a variation. Kit makes a bi-color rope, just like the other samples.
