Tiny chatons 1.

Last summer (or spring, can't remember clearly) my favourite local bead shop added 6 mm Swarovski chatons to its sortiment. I was absolutely fascinated by those tiny shinies, bought quite a lot of them and started to experiment... Here are some of my results:

1. The easiest way - just bezel a few of them with peyote stitch then join them without further embellishing.

The result is simple but nice. It can be used as a modestly sized "alltagstäugliche" pendant perfect for everyday wear or even  - if using fitting colors e.g. grey or black - for an elegant or business look. 

But what looks rather small for a pendant, as a ring may look a bit oversized - but so funny! I really like this ring, even it can be a bit uncomfortable to wear... 

For this set I've chosen the following colors: Blue zircon, Light turquoise, Pacific opal - the shades of water, cool and clear, they are the best choice for beadweaving on a hot Summer day :)
