Teacher: Laurie Capponi


2" round ornaments surrounding with a Poinsettia design in gold, red, and green beads.
Laurie will demonstrate this month's beading technique.

Add a touch of intricate elegance to your holiday decor or needlework collection with our Beaded Poinsettia Ornament project. This stunning, two-sided netted design beautifully encases a standard glass ornament, weaving a delicate floral motif from seed beads.


For dynamic visual guidance, you can also follow along with our two-part video tutorial series.


Note: If you use the two videos, remember that you are using 11 inch seed beads and a 2” ornament ball.
