I’m always asked if I can show how I design a piece of jewellery so today I’m going to be designing three pieces of jewellery from the beads in the latest Soft Flex Design Challenge Kit. I will take you along and show you my process (it’s a long one) and how I come up with the designs that I do. The kit is called Lovebug Design Challenge Kit.

I opened the package on camera and challenged myself to make some pieces of jewellery using mainly the supplies inside the kit. I succeeded in the most part. I did need a few little extras like ear hooks, jump rings and clasps, etc but I was pretty pleased with the results.
