Heavenly Angel Earrings Beading Pattern

Learn how to make these beautiful "Heavenly Angel Earrings," stitched up using a unique variation of the Russian spiral stitch. The angel's glorious dress is adorned with swirling pearls of graduating sizes and trimmed with sparkling seed beads and fire-polished glass beads. Her graceful arms and delicate hands are brought together in gentle prayer. Her soft, luminous face (with a perfect pearly complexion), is framed with lustrous locks, atop which sits, a heavenly halo. We'll show you how to stitch up the angel from start to finish, as well as show you how to form the wire wings to your preferred shape and size.  These heavenly angels make a unique and lovely accessory during the holidays and any time of year.
