You will receive 3 variations of peyote as shown in the 1st picture.
This is for the patterns only and is not for completed bracelets. The 4 drop peyote bracelet pictured is stitched by Liz Hummer, 1BeadAtATime. Liz uses my patterns to stitch her beautiful bracelets with a few adjustments to my design: she adjusted the size and used a beaded clasp. The 6 drop peyote olive bracelet in the last picture is stitched by Martina Windau aka Tynchen. Martina uses my patterns to stitch her beautiful bracelets with a few adjustments to my design: she changed the colors, adjusted the size and added a beaded clasp.

The patterns use 3 colors of size 11 Miyuki Delicas and measures as follows: The regular peyote pattern is 2 x 8, the 4 drop peyote pattern is 1.8 x 8 and the 6 drop peyote pattern is 2 x 8.

Be sure to contact me at beadholden [!at] msn.com to get my 4 COMPLIMENTARY PDFs, for size 11s and 15s, which list the Delica 'Safe Beads' I have compiled. I don't suggest any dyed or galvanized beads in the palettes because they fade and the color rubs off with time. I also don't use satin/silk beads because they tend to cut the beading thread and because they are thinner than other Delicas, they break very easily. It would be a shame to put money, time and effort into your piece only to have the color change, the thread cut or the beads break. I want your beaded art to last forever. The colors of my designs are only suggestions, but please remember to avoid dyed, galvanized and satin/silk beads, so you won't be disappointed later.
The 4 COMPLIMENTARY 'Safe Beads' Lists also indicate the bead finishes that will either pop or recede in your beadwork. The P or R after the Delica's Mfg # represents whether the bead (P)ops (comes forward) or (R)ecedes (fades into the background) of the design. PR or RP indicates that the bead can either pop or recede depending on the type of bead finish it is next to. Keep this in mind if you change my suggested colors.
Please take the time to read my "Policies" before placing your order.
Come back soon, as I have 100s of patterns that I will be listing in my store .... Beadholden Designs.
I hope you enjoy beading up my patterns as much as I enjoy designing them and until we speak again,
BEad HAPPY!
