This ball ornament topper design is so beautiful! I love that you didn’t use large shaped beads to take up a lot of space. You’ve made such a delicate look with classic beading, IE RAW with seed beads. The pearls, drops and Superduos are used sparingly for the perfect finishing touch. Thanks so much for sharing your beautiful project.
SO PRETTY! I was just sitting here working on your Seaside Dreams wrap bracelet when this video popped up. Suddenly SQUIRREL! I’ve totally gotten off track and am now hunting through my stash for ornament ideas. 🤪 You are not to blame for my issues with staying focused… that’s all on me. Thank you for sharing this lovely tutorial. Hugs from Kentucky
Haha so funny and so familiar 😆😀😃 I’m always starting another project before I can finish the one I’m working on. It can be exhausting 😂😂😂 but oh so much fun!
I love this design. It is so pretty and very versatile. I used Mini DiamondDuos in one, and I used 6mm bugles in another. I love how they turned out! (Finding pearl drops to match my bright white pearls wasn't easy though.) I made mine to fit 3 1/2 in baubles, so I had to use 10 pearls instead of 8.
Stephanie, I've seen hundreds of Christmas ball beaded ornaments but this by is my favorite. The design is stunning! Going through my beads to pull everything needed! Thank you again for a beautiful idea for Christmas. You continue to amaze me.
I am in the car as a passenger driving from Lake Tahoe to San Francisco. I got a notification and I opened it with excitement!! This is such an amazing tutorial!! I love how they turned out. They are beautiful. Thank you for sharing this tutorial. You have inspired me to make a few as gifts for my mother and sisters. The hooks are a bonus. They will look perfect on the ornament. Stephanie I love watching your tutorials they truly make my day. Thanks again.
I have just started to make the ornament cover using silver seed beads, white pearls and ab red 4mm bicones. I don't usually make other crafters creations but this one was unique and very pretty. I've made my own designs for about three years now. But I really like this one. Thank you for sharing with us.
Oh wow! Stephanie, you knocked it out of the park on this one!! So excited to make ornaments!! I love that it can be moved to another ornament-last year my son/dogs knocked over our tree and I lost the ones that had closed bottoms. (I’ve since learned that if I’m going to close the bottom to use separate thread so the whole thing doesn’t have to be remade 😢) Happy early Holidays!!
Oh wow! So timely and so lovely! I've been in the mood for ornaments, and I love the covers that can change from one glass ball to another. Especially handy in case of breakage, too. I love this........thank you!
You are such a great instructor! Thank you so much. You are detailed enough so beginners like me can follow. I love everything I've seen so far so thanks again.
Really a kind gift to us and to me surely this tutorial thinking to Christmas, very kind of you, my dear. I am so happy to found that opening TH-cam 💛🧡❤️💚💙💜😃
Thank you so much for doing an ornament cover. The ones you did are beautiful. I need to raid my stash and make some. Thank you for sharing all of your amazing pieces.
Simply gorgeous! I've been slowly assembling the materials to make ornament covers for a few years now, had a few ideas/motifs in mind (both for netting/RAW and component-based constructions)....and here you are, gelling all those elusive bits into something beautiful, and complete. Thank you!
Really fun project for the holidays. Love the purple/green colorway. You've presented this ornament cover so very well with easy to follow video demo. Cats will be cats...and we will never, ever figure them out. Thanks, Stephanie, for sharing this beautiful project with us.
A wonderful tutorial on the beaded bauble! I'm ready to give it a go! Thank you for sharing your talent and creativity with me! You are an excellent tutor! Thanks so much!
Thank you Stephanie for your time and patience. This is beautiful and fun. Sure glad to put my stash to use. I did hear your Kitty speak and as usual with felines, we are their butlers….always on their terms 🐈❣️. Blessings to you and all amazing beavers.
Thanks so much for all of your wonderful patterns and ideas. I’ve been following you for years and adore everything you make. I love how you encourage us to go through our bead stash to see what else might work. Lord knows I’ve got a stash! I just finished this ornament in blues and greens - it is gorgeous!
You’re very welcome Suz🙏😊🌺 Thank you for joining me on the bead weaving journey! I’ve been so blessed with the best beading community! Thank you so much for being a part of it. Here’s to many more years of beading to come 🥂 I’d love to see your ornaments if you’d like to post them on Bronzepony Facebook page 🌺
Loving this one!!! I am going to make a few more but thinking the first part with a 4mm fire polish between the super duos will make a beautiful bracelet!!
I had sooo much fun playing with this ornament today!! Thanks. I've seen lots of videos lately but most just start with a circle of seed beads for the first row. Your RAW idea is very unique and beautiful.
Beautiful cover and I love the way you go slowly step by step , makes it so much easier to follow can't wait to make this one ,thank you very much for sharing this with us. Hello from the UK.
This is stunning! Thank you for using materials that we have in our stash or can easily get. Thank you also for showing the sizing, since the ornaments vary.
BEAUTIFUL!!! I love them! 😍😍😍 I bought stands for the ones I make. They have single hook stands and multiple hook stands. They are used to display them as decor instead of putting them on your Christmas tree. 🎄🎄🎄 However they are displayed, they are absolutely beautiful! 💖💖💖 Thank you so much for sharing. 😊💖⭐
These are absolutely beautiful, I made one and honestly they are not hard to make. Stephanie you always do such beautiful work. Now I seem to be this person who learns her mistakes along the way. 1st mistake I did was the tops of my bulbs are Hugh, not a big deal I can either add an extra component or I was thinking maybe there is some way to use stretch cord just around the top. My second mistake is I have a problem with making everything super tight, I need to learn how to manage my tension. I didn't have any drop beads with the hole going the correct way so I make my own little drops. It turned out so pretty, however I know I'm probably going to have to take it apart and redo it, due to the tension being to tight. Thank u so much for this tutorial.
Hi Stephanie, I love this tutorial! It’s hands down the prettiest one available! I have made 3 so far on some older ornaments I had. I am now having a problem finding new ones with a small enough top to fit inside the circumference of the top ring of beads. The only solution I have come up with is using 8mm instead of 6mm pearls to start. They will sit up so much higher so I’m not sure it will look nice. Before I tried I thought I would ask if you might have any better re-fit suggestions. Happy Thanksgiving and thank you again for the wonderful tutorials you share! Christine
Thank you so much for doing this! I have been trying to get my ornament stash updated and this design is going to be my priority. These look so elegant. 🌹🎄🎆🎍
@@BronzeponyBeadedJewelry Stephanie, I LOVE your channel💗😍💗I am so glad and grateful I found yours. And the ornament-hooks are beautiful, you did a great job, love them and you! 😘💐
I’m late in watching your video, but thank you so much for making beaded ornament video’s!!! I love making them and nobody seems to make video’s on making them anymore. I can not wait to make this and give them as gift’s. Thank you so much!!!!! Love from Ohio
Absolutely gorgeous Stephanie…you must have ESP as I’m starting on my Christmas baubles…I’ve finished all my beaded icicles and these are definitely on my list..thank you for sharing these…🥰🇦🇺
You're welcome 😊. I've actually created 3 ball decorations instead of one. The first is hanging on my 🎄 and the second is hanging on my daughter's 🎄. The third is hanging on my window. Love all three! Thanks again for this beautiful pattern ❤
Yes! bronzeponybeadedjewelry@gmail.com the email often doesn’t come thought here as a link so you’ll copy and paste or rewrite 😊 I’m excited to see it!
Stephanie. A quick question, please. If the initial rounds do not fit around my ornament crown, could I increase the number of beads/pearls from eight to nine or ten? Even number?
Yes. I’d probably make it an even number although maybe any number will work? I have seen it done with 12. You can also take off the crown, try it on and replace the crown.
UPDATE: I made this ornament for my brother. He chose the colors. Purple, pink, and black. I don't complain, I just create. I used purple pearls, labrador and matte black seed beads, fuschia bicones, and metallic purple crystal drops. It actually looks pretty good! I have discovered that I need to invest in some smaller christmas balls. Almost everything I had was too large. Thank you again for a wonderful design. 💖🎄🎍
What is the best technique to tie off so that a knot will remain hidden? I just found your videos when searching for ornament topper tutorials. Yours is lovely!
Thank you 🙏 I tie half hitch knots in between beads and pull the knot through the next couple of beads to hide the knot. This is secure and hides the thread and knots.
