Brighten up your holidays with this beaded Christmas lights pattern that will add a touch of holiday color, fun, and whimsy to whatever you’re wearing. Our “Cheerful Christmas Lights,” are stitched up with warm twinkling “bulbs” of fire-polished glass beads and seed beads that sit atop dazzling “bases” of metal spacers and crystal rondelles, so they simply sparkle and glow. We’ll show you how to stitch up these realistic Christmas lights and finish them off as perfect little earrings (that you can mix and match throughout the holidays), or incorporate them into our unique swirling strand of sparkling seed beads (that look just like the twisted wire in real Christmas light strands) for a cheerful necklace or bracelet (single or multi-wrap). This is a fun and fast Christmas project that can be enjoyed by beaders of all skill levels, including absolute beginners. Hanging Christmas lights has never been so fun and easy – and taking them down after the holidays is a breeze!

About our beading patterns
Great instructions that hold your hand each step of the way!
Each beading pattern features detailed, step-by-step instructions written in a clear, simple conversational style. A full-color close-up photo also accompanies each step, showing what is happening (annotated when applicable to illustrate stitching direction or highlight relevant details). All of our beading patterns also include a detailed materials page that specifies everything you need to make the project (including bead types, sizes, and quantities, as well as any required tools and findings). Most patterns also now include a special notes section, offering helpful tips specific to the design, as well as bead color information for each color scheme.

That tells you everything you’ll need to make the project, including bead types, sizes, and quantities of all required beading materials and tools. Check out our next section for helpful tips on how to successfully customize your jewelry.
A bead legend
That shows where each bead is used in the project – which is very helpful if you’re choosing your own color scheme.
Bead color information
All of our newer patterns include detailed bead color information that specifies the type, manufacturer, and color of all beads used in each color sample.
Please note, our earliest patterns did not include such detailed bead color information for each of the color samples we made. If you purchase an older pattern and want color information for a particular jewelry sample, just contact us and we’ll do our best to help.
Special notes section
That highlights important things for you to know, or keep in mind, to be successful with the project.
Step-by-step instructions
We write each beading pattern with beginners in mind. Each and every step is explained in detail, so no prior beading experience is ever required.
Photo for each and every step
Each close-up, high-resolution, full-color photo is carefully taken to show exactly what’s happening in the step. We edit every photo to ensure they’re as bright and clear as possible, and often add special annotations for further clarity.
