Naupaka Necklace Tutorial Instant Download

One of Hawaii’s famous legends is built around naupaka, a shrub found near the beach or in the mountains. The flowers are unique, it resembles a half-flower, with petals missing. Early Hawaiians believed it was the incarnation of a princess separated from her lover.
Naupaka Necklace showcases the beauty of half-flower. Radiating out in a demi circle from the round vintage Swarovski cabochon, are several sparkly Swarovski lemon cut stones. This pendant dangles from a simple, twisted beaded chain, inspired by the jungle vines and crashing waves of the ocean.

Techniques: Pendant is bead embroidered, chain is bead woven. Peyote and ladder stitches.
Length: 24” long, not including pendant drop.
