lorelei's pendant tutorial

Recently a lovely blogger and beader Lorelei Eurto purchased one of my embroidered pendants to create the stunning piece above. You can check out the tutorial to make the same necklace on Lorelei's blog here.

I've also become a huge fan of a number of beautiful pieces in Lorelei's Etsy shop, with the plethora of beading and jewellery shops on Etsy these days it's nice to come across work that's truly unique.
