About Gina's Picks December 2021
Theme: Cocoa Confections
I have once again partnered with Eureka Crystal Beads to bring you “Gina’s Picks” for December 2021! This month’s theme is called Cocoa Confections, which features hues of chocolate brown, pastel pink, golden caramel, and creamy white chocolate. At least three follow-up tutorials will be coming, based on the products you’ll see in the video.
While there are some similarities here to an official ECB collection launch, think of this monthly picks concept as a mini collection, of sorts, in which I select some of my favorite products to highlight for the month, which are curated around a monthly theme. These monthly picks will happen on the months where a ECB collection is not being released, and will bridge the gap between those highly anticipated events.Â

Other December 2021 Projects:
Twisted Bugle Ganache Bracelet
Twisted Miyuki Bugle Beads make up the wider center channel of the beadwork, which is framed on both sides by reflective Toho Hexagon beads and shimmering Demi Round seed beads. This bracelet shows off the precision-cut and elegant twisted bugles in a slinky and comfortable bracelet design.
Chaton Confection Crystal and Pearl Bracelet
Sparkling 8mm Krakovski Crystal Chatons in gold settings dot the length of the bracelet, which also incorporates a base of iridescent pink Preciosa pearls. 11/0 and 15/0 seed beads, Delicas, and 3mm crystal bicones frame the chatons, and connect each crystal together in a chain-link fashion.
Roseta Cab and MobyDuo Component Necklace
Two-hole Roseta cabochon beads are once again used as the center of each flower-like beaded component. The beaded flowers also consist of pink and cream MobyDuo beads, and 11/0 and 15/0 round seed beads. These components may be linked together to form a necklace, as show, or even used separately. How about possibly turning one into a beaded ring?!
