Hey beautiful! ✿ It’s Gina from orchidandopal.com. In today's tutorial I will show you a twist on the flat spiral beading stitch, so you can turn it into a beautiful necklace. This design uses graduated sizes of glass pearls and crystal bicones, which make a lovely statement on the front of the neck, and allow for the beads to contour towards the back as they become smaller.

So beautiful. Classic with modern twist. Just right for Holliday partys.
Thank you so much! 💜
Gina, Gorgeous Necklace and so easy to create. What a great easy to follow tutorial as always. God Bless You !💙💙💙☺☺☺
Thanks so much, Mary!
I just made this necklace and it is stunning. I used Swarovski xillion diamond bicones and 3 shades of turquoise glass pearls. Thanks for your awesome design and directions Gina!
Yay! That sounds stunning, Nancy! Thank you so much for taking the time to let me know. :)
Gorgeous!!! Love your tutorials
Thank you so much, Janet!
Very pretty! 💕👀💕👀💕 Thank you for sharing. 😊🌹
My pleasure, Sheila! Thank you!
Hi Gina, this is gorgeous! Thank you so much for sharing... Stay creative and Blessed 💎💎💎💎💎#HappyBeading
Thank you, Sonia!
This is so beautiful Gina! This may be my weaving project. 🥰 I think because it has the bigger pearls mixed with the smaller beads it's more appealing to me, so beautiful. I don't know what it is, but sometimes the more detailed bead weaving projects gross me out for some reason! 😂 I need some bigger beads in there to break up the detail. I'm strange😂🤣 Thanks for the tutorial Gina!!🥰
Awesome! Definitely give it a try! I think it's great that you found what appeals to you more - no shame in that! 💜
@@ORCHIDandOPAL Thank you Gina! 💗
Gina, this is beautiful! Thank you also for the coupon code and thank you for sharing! 💜
Thank you, Sharon!
Do you ship to U.K.
Yes, I will ship finished pieces to the UK.
Hi.Nice and very beautiful. Thanks.
Thanks so much, Ahila!!
Stunning…I love it…🥰🇦🇺
Thanks, Linda! 💜😁
Lovely
Thank you!
💗💗💗
Awesome..but know I've got to go get more 6mm bicones..I have hundreds of 4mm..but only a handful of 6mm..and not enough of the same color.
I love this ..I love the flat spiral. .and have so many bracelets..and I would always make somewhat matching (color and beads only) necklaces. .but now they can really match.
You're great, thanks for sharing and all the great inspiration.
Aww, I am so glad you love it! Thank you!
Stunning! I love your color combo in the demo sample. TFS!
Anxious to give this whirl when done with my current project. I'll be using fire polish crystals and pearls. It's what I have on hand. I don't use bicones for anything that touches my skin. They are too sharp and irritate my skin, esp. the fine Swarovski bicones. I know . . . weird.
Thanks, Michelle! 💜
Gina, WOW!!! Stunning necklaces, they look so elegant! Great tutorial, very easy to follow. Thanks much for sharing! Stay blessed!
Thanks so much, Lidia!
Hi Gina. Love that necklace. I am going to try it. Love the colors that you used. I like the way you explain every thing that you do that is very helpful to me because i have a hard time trying to do thing with out it being explained. I am trying so hard to do this craft. Thank you for sharing i can't get enough of your videos. They are what is keeping me going. Have a great weekend.
Oh please do, Fran! You will have to keep me posted on how you are doing with it. I'm so happy you're enjoying my videos - it really means a lot to me. Hope you have a great weekend too! 💜
Omg endless possibilities. Can't wait to order 10mm pearls I already have the other sizes. Thank you Gina for sharing your beautiful designs. ❤🦋
My pleasure, Elizabeth! I'm so glad you enjoyed it!
Gina, this is a great color combo. I love it. It did look much easier than I thought it would be. Of coarse I haven’t tried it yet. LOL thank you for sharing with us
Thank you, Dena! I am so glad you think so! If you take your time, and you accept that you might make some mistakes along the way, you'll be fine! I made a couple of mistakes even when I was filming the tutorial (which got edited out), and I have made this a bunch of times! LOL. Just go one step at a time. You can do it! 💜
Like it a lot! Looks very pretty! I would be worried about my fireline slipping trough the crimp though. I´ve never tried that. Does it stay securely?
Hi Claudia! It feels amazingly secure, especially with the crimps in two places on each side. I tested it, and as long as you crimp it tightly, you should be fine. Thanks for watching!
Hey i want to ask you does beebeecraft charge an additional 95 cents because i ordered some products online on friday and a bargain bead box but i see 95 cents gone from my card towards beebeecrafts is this normal its under beebeecrafts customized
No they don't charge anything additional - you will have to contact them to see what's up
Such a gorgeous piece! I love pieces that can be casual or formal just by bead choice. I want to do turquoise and red. Or turquoise and silver!
That would be so lovely! Thank you for your comment, and for watching! 💜
This looks awesome! I’ve always wanted to make a spiral stitch necklace, and every time I tried it didn’t look right. Love it. Thank you for sharing! ❤️
I'm so glad I could help! Thanks for watching, Jenny! 💜
I luv all your beading tutorials, (when do you know to use beading wire) in your projects????
Thank you, Margie! I use it when stringing single strands of beads where you don't need to weave multiple threads through the holes. :) 💜
Thank you for sharing!!!! This answers my desire to use this technique as a necklace.
That's perfect, Vee! I am so glad to hear it! 💜
Gorgeous. Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful creations with us.
Thank you! It's my pleasure! 💜
Ooohh, "out of the park, home run" with this beautiful necklace!!! I really like both of your colorways, but holy smokes, this can be customized to the moon and back!! Thanks, Gina, for sharing this lovely, very stitchable, design with us.
Thank you so much, Sue! It will be great to try in many variations!
Love this piece, wow its stunning. Ur tutorial is great, understood everything. Ty for the beautiful pattern. Have a great day.
Thanks so much, Sharon! 💜

Is really elegant! Beautiful ty for sharing
Thank you, Maria! 😊
Hi there Gina, Just a quick question! I'm about to undertake my third try at this necklace (they are getting better with each try so I'm hoping the next attempt will make it.). On my last attempt my last 6mm pearls were having trouble lying flat against the neck, even going up to the where the thread and the soft flex meet is kinda like there was a twist. Do you think maybe this has to do with the crossing of thread underneath the first lot of crimp beads? or too much tension?
Hey Megan! Great question. I think both of those things that you mentioned are possibilities - tension probably being the biggest issue for potential twisting at that point. Leave yourself a smidge more wiggle-room to see if that helps, and secondly try not to cross the wire and the thread if you can help it. That should help too. You'll have to let me know how it goes! Thanks so much for sharing! 💜💜💜
Orchid and Opal Jewelry & Beads Hi Gina, it went a lot better this time! I was doing really well and then I decided it was time to break a seed bead with my crimping pliers.. but! I managed to take the crimp off and save it! Which I was so happy about! I’m not sure I had another go in me (I would’ve had to have given myself a couple of days to recover lol). It now sits a lot more nicer against the skin. I followed your tutorial to the letter and made sure to pull the pearls tight as I did the stitch, also taking care with the thread and stringing wire when they had to be crimped together. I was so happy when I finished!! I wouldn’t say I’m a beginner when it comes to beading but this beauty really tested my patience XD I still have so much to learn! Thank you so much for your videos. I always click on them when I get notified. Even the bead boxes! (Which we don’t get over here in the UK, so jealous) but thank you for being a constant inspiration. Have a lovely Christmas!
Gina this necklace is gorgeous...😍
Thank you so much, Fabiana!
Is beautiful! Ty fo you time
Thanks so much, Maria!
Love this, just beautiful.
Thanks so much!
BEAUTIFUL
Thank you so much, Ninivel! :)
