Beautiful Bead Mixes

Hey everyone! Ready for some great bead inspiration?? Today's projects all come from Design Team Member Jeri Vann. She is a wonderful bead artist and I have loved getting to know her work.


This fun necklace was created with the Blue Moon Beads Bead Tin in the Toffee Crunch theme. I love the mix of the brown and the turquoise beads, so pretty! This necklace has tons of style! See more views of her piece on her blog HERE.



This great set of earrings also uses a Bead Tin in the Melon Ball theme. Love the mix of the silver and the green beads, very classy! See more of Jeri's earrings HERE.



And her last beautiful creation uses the Mud Pie Bead Tin. Her necklace features silver and black beads. I love the different lengths of beads in the front which makes it so unique! More views of Jeri's necklace can be found HERE.

I hope you loved these projects! Have a wonderful day!
