Tiny Flowers With Long Magatama

I’ve been having lots of fun playing around with these Miyuki Long Magatama 4/7 m/m beads! While I was designing my pinecone I kept looking at the first couple rows and thinking what a darling little flower this would make. So I’ve whipped up a few just for fun. Take a look. Most of the flowers are created by just working the first two rows of the pinecone pattern and then sewing a bead in the center.
Combining Tilas and Magatamas

First, Tilas: the flat, square, two-hole glass beads. The dual holes create alternative design possibilities, and the beads’ broad shapes give designs a distinctive look. For this necklace, I use them in a classic beaded lace pattern. The “filler” beads are Magatamas, which are rounded little glass beads that are much fatter on one side than on the other. They’re similar to small drop, or “fringe” beads, but not quite as teardrop shaped.

Well, I just had to play some more with these Long Magatama beads! While I was experimenting with the Dragon Bangle instructions a few weeks ago (see previous posts) I thought to myself that these beads would make the most darling little pinecone. So I abandoned the bangle and decided to play around with it to see what I could come up with. It didn’t take long before I had the most darling little pinecone in my hand. (I think someone on one of the beading forums thought the beads would work for a pinecone too, but I can’t remember who it was.)

This Festive Wreath Kumihimo Bracelet is pretty quick to make for a bead woven project (about 2-3 hours) and easy if you have done some Kumihimo before. If you haven’t, please watch this video and this other video to get the hang of what kumihimo is. We also suggest you try a simple braid with rattail and a beaded braid with seeds before progressing to the long magatamas.
