Orchid Earrings Crescent Beads (Cr) have two holes. Therefore it is important to know which hole to go through. I refer to the Crescent Beads showing the curve on top. Cr (R): Go through the right hole Cr (L): Go through the left hole Step 1 a) Take a thread of about 50 cm (ca. 19.7 inch) length and pick up 1 RP6 and 1 Cr (L). Leave a tail that you can hold and secure easily later on. b) Go through the second hole of the Cr. c) Pick up 1 Cr (L). d) Go through the second hole of the Cr you just picked up and go further through the RP6 and through the Cr (L) of the first Cr from step 1b.

Orchid Earrings About the Author Ulrike Gunther In addition to beading, tango dancing and trail riding are my hobbies. Often people ask me how high heels and riding boats go together. I can tell you, they go together very well. The different between urban elegance and romantic rustic is the spice and fun in life for me and I try to show this in my jewelry.
