Tulip Flower Chocolate Easter Egg Holder Ornament Bead Pattern

What’s better at Easter than a chocolate egg? A chocolate egg decorated with beadwork of course! This Tulip ornament holds a real chocolate egg that can easily be taken out and replaced as often as you like! The ornament is designed to fit a Cadburys Crème egg (we have covered ours with tin foil to look pretty), however there are lots of eggs around this size that will also fit. The ornament is relatively quick to bead, taking around 3 hours – so it is a great choice to bead up for presents this Easter. As usual with ThreadABead featured patterns we give full detailed photographic instructions and in this pattern there are 68 detailed steps, making this pattern even suitable for beginners to beading. This ornament bead pattern is made using Japanese Miyuki size 11 Delica. A form of round peyote and herringbone is used but full detailed instructions are given and no previous knowledge of the stitch is required. Please note the pattern may not work with any other size and type of beads. There are 4 delica colours in total and the finished beadwork is approximately 12cm x 4cm (not including loop). .42 x 3mm Firepolished Fuschia, 12 x 3mm Firepolished Clear Crystal AB, 6 x 4mm Firepolished Clear Crystal AB and 6 x 6mm Firepolished Clear Crystal AB Beads are also required It is also beneficial but not essential to have a No Tangle Thread Bobbin and a small piece of Tin Foil.
