Beaded hoop earrings handwoven bead-by-bead in purple, bronze, and neon blue glass beads. Colorful, lightweight teardrop hoops with subtle texture and movement.

The Design

These beaded hoop earrings are a celebration of color. Metallic purple and nickel-plated plum seed beads create a rich foundation of color across the hoop. Accents of neon purple and electric blue Czech beads introduce bright flashes of light, adding contrast and dimension throughout the beadwork. Brass cube beads provide small metallic highlights that tie the palette together, creating a bold yet balanced mix of color and texture.

Craftsmanship

Each earring is carefully handwoven using ultra-strong FireLine thread and 141 tiny seed beads (282 per pair), Czech glass beads and brass cubes. The beads are stitched one by one along the frame, wrapping the hoop in layered color and texture. Pattern by The Pacific Thread, handwoven by me.
