The Little Fairies Necklace is another easy project which uses the Preciosa pellet beads as the flower centre. The vibrant matt metallic colours would work well for these or try a selection of shiny metallic pip colours..
We also have a lovey variation which features some pretty violets. You could also make a sweet ring.
You can also use the pip flowers to make lovely little earrings.
The pip can also be attached flowers to a blank on a hair pin. These look really pretty studded through the hair.
They’re also a great choice for bridal jewellery.
The little 5x7mm pips combine beautifully with the 9x14mm engraved pips to make more elaborate flower themed jewellery.
The Preciosa pips are also very good for edging a piece of jewellery such as a bracelet.
A few pips and seed beads can also be used to make a lovely delicate necklace using, for example a metallic or iris colour.
However, you can also mass the pips together to create a very different effect.
