Beading Party With Beki Foster: Turtle Pendant Necklace With Craft Wire
We spent time with the wonderful jewelry designer and maker of things Rebecca (Beki) Foster of Bekito Burrito! Sometimes Beki makes art, sometimes she makes jewelry, sometimes she knits. Follow her creative adventures on her YouTube channel.
Beki creates many wonderful tutorials from Soft Flex Company beading challenge design kits on her YouTube channel and this sweet wire work turtle was one of them. Beki shared her tutorial and showed us how to make a sea turtle pendant or earrings using Soft Flex Craft Wire and beads!
From Beki:
Here's the little turtle I made on our Live last night with y'all. I had such a great time with Kristen & making this little guy with Soft Flex wire. I want to thank Soft Flex Company for 1. making such great products 2. for making such a positive and encouraging community that makes it easy to learn and grow, and 3. for having me on to share my love of making things.
Here is the sea turtle pendant necklace that Beki made.
Here is the necklace and earrings that Beki made on one of her YouTube video. She used 18ga, 20ga and 24ga Soft Flex Craft Wire, and Silversilk Capture Chain in the sea foam color.

While Beki was making her turtle pendant necklace, Kristen Fagan made an assortment of earrings using Colorful Soul Wooden Jewelry Pop Outs, Ultimate Paints and Soft Flex Craft Wire.
From Kristen:
I really had fun pulling out all of my painted wood pop-out pieces and finishing them into earrings yesterday! I shared how to make the beaded ear wire on our beading party video with Beki - Rebecca Foster yesterday and again on Soft Flex Instagram reels!
