I came to know about The New England Bead Company jewelry making classes from my friend Aswathy Vinu. She like jewelries, while browsing she noticed the New England Bead Company site and came to know about the medallion Pendant making class and she informed me about that. We both like very much the medallion Pendant which shown in the site ( a model of the medallion which we can make in the Pendant making class) and we wanted to make a medallion Pendant like that. I didn’t know the techniques of Seed bead pendant making. So we both decided to go for the Seed Bead Medallion Pendant making class ( 3 hours class).
We are so excited about the Pendant making. The New England Bead Company offers jewelry making supplies for sale and provides jewelry making classes, it is located in Ashland Massachusetts. This bead store has everything the beginner or advanced jewelry designer could want.
I made this medallion with a combination of white and gold seed beads, Opal AB Preciosa bicones and 8mm x 5mm red rondelle crystals. For the center bead I chose a gold diamond cut metallic bead.
Anita Kratzsch, the owner of The New England Bead Company is a great jewelry designer, very knowledgeable and experienced instructor who always gives you the attention you need. Anita was incredibly helpful and patient with us.
My friend Aswathy Vinu made the below beautiful pendant with a hand carved cinnabar bead. Stark white and red seed beads surround her center bead. She further enhanced it with clear and bronze rondelle crystals.
We both had such a great experience at The New England Bead Company.
