In this Amber Beads Jewelry I have combined rich amber bicone beads with black disk beads. To add bit of glamour and that little extra I’ve used a few golden stardust beads to it. The pendant is made with molded black polymer clay, and the impression on top of it is made with clear stamps. (The best stamps in the whole world!) The polymer clay pendant is simple to make, and it could be a wonderfully quick make for when you’re in a hurry creating a beaded jewelry as a gift or something.
I read somewhere that yellow is the color of this year, and you know what? I don’t mind, I don’t mind at all…
I love yellow! One of my favorite color combinations are yellow and violet, you can make one of the most amazing jewelry pieces with beads in those color combinations. Yellow or amber works wonderfully with black.
The rich yellows like amber I find the most versatile, and it’s usually the best nuance for both the violet and the black color combinations. Otherwise some yellow nuances will look very “bee” like together with black. And who wants to walk around like a bee?
For me amber is a confident color with style and wits. Something that looks real tasty is yellow amber beads together with medium dark grey beads or silver chains. I have to make something with those colors!
Looking for inspiration I found this cute bead jewelry on celebrity Ginnifer-Goodwin. It’s made of big fabulous beaded amber flowers. It looks fantastic on her, and the dress is perfect for it!
I’m telling you, big jewelry looks great with the right outfit! We’re also just right on time now making amber beads jewelry, since autumn is here soon. I will make my autumn jewelry just in time to be ready to wear them when the trees turn yellow and orange.
Also, I was thinking about what is the best way to wear my long or medium long amber necklace in the autumn? But then it hit me, of course! Se: It’s getting colder so you might want to wear your scarf around your neck, but with one end of the scarf hanging down on your back your necklace will be perfectly visible beneath it anyway!
Found this superb book on how to make our own beaded flowers: The Beaded Garden: Creating Flowers with Beads and Thread by Diane Fitzgerald. With this one you can create the most amazing flowers only with a needle, thread and seed beads. That’s impressive!
Down here are some more photos of my Amber Beads Necklace, enjoy!

Love the simple black polymer pendant. Really sets off the amber beads nicely!
