Large Gingerbread Ornament Pattern Bead Pattern

Welcome to one of ThreadABeads LARGEST ever fully beaded ornaments!! Around the centre of the ornament is a sweet little gingerbread house, a Gingerbread man and woman plus lots of little details such as scrummy cakes, candy cane, trees, sweets and ice creams! The top and the bottom of the ornament is embellished with coloured fire polished beads and then edged in galvanized silver delica beads. Made using a form of Round Peyote the ornament is easy and simple to make. However, it will take around 8-10 hours, so makes an ideal piece of heirloom beadwork. As usual with ThreadABead featured patterns we give full detailed photographic instructions and in this pattern there are 58 detailed steps, making this pattern even suitable for beginners to beading. This ornament bead pattern is made using Japanese Miyuki size 11 Delica beads and round peyote is used. It is assumed the beader will be familiar round peyote, however full instructions are given. Please note the pattern may not work with any other size and type of beads. There are 20 colours in total and the finished beadwork is approximately 11.5 cm x 4.5 cm. 10 x 3mm Crystals in any colour (we used 2 each of fuschia, green emerald, hyacinth, aquamarine and yellow), 32 x 3mm Crystal AB, 4 x 8mm Crystal AB Fire Polished Beads are required for the ornament. Additionally, Polyester Wadding can be used, however this is optional and not required. The bead pattern supplied is 22 pages and includes a colour chart of suggested delicas, a colour pattern and a numbered coloured pattern with full photographic assembly instructions.
