Oh Belle pendant with Arcos beads

How to make a pendant with beads?

To inspire your creative spirit, Puca offers a new tutorial for making a round pendant using Arcos glass beads. These “half-moon”-shaped beads can be linked together and, thanks to their hollow design, fit perfectly with the bicones that will also make up the pendant. Arcos beads come in various finishes—matte, satin, or glossy—and also combine very easily with Puca’s Minos beads. You can therefore mix and match them endlessly to let your imagination run wild.

To make this pretty pendant, simply download the diagram at the bottom of the page and follow the step-by-step instructions. Then it’s up to you to decide whether you’d prefer to hang it on a chain, turn it into a pair of earrings, or make it into a pretty charm. You can also pair it with the D’Cybèle pendant, another creation by Puca for which she shares a tutorial. Make it in shades of camel or blue-green, as Puca suggests in her variation. Of course, you can let your imagination run wild and create this piece to match the colors of the D’Cybèle pendant —for example, to create a stunning bag charm.
