MOON RING EARRINGS & PENDANT
©2010, updated 2024 Deborah Roberti
Updated from 2010, my Moon Ring Earrings pattern now includes substitution instructions for some super-sized earrings and an entirely new pendant design! The original smaller earrings measure about .75 inches wide and are beaded up using 11/0 seed beads, 3mm beads and 4mm beads. The new super-sized earrings measure about an inch wide, using 8/0 seed beads, 4mm beads and 6mm beads. The new matching pendant measures about 1.4 inches wide, using 11/0 and 8/0 seed beads, 4mm beads, 6mm beads and SuperDuo beads. 3mm, 4mm and 6mm beads can be bicone crystal, fire-polished or round beads, making this a very versatile pattern and great stash-buster.
Stitch: Various
Beads Used: Size 11 and 8/0 seed beads (I used Miyuki rocaille seed beads), 3mm, 4mm and 6mm beads (bicone crystal, fire-polished or round beads) and SuperDuo beads for the pendant.
Approx Finished Size: About .75 inches wide for the smaller earrings, an inch wide for the super-sized earrings and about 1.4 inches wide for the pendant.

Beads used in my photos NOTE: Bead colors and coatings (and even bead types!) seem to be disappearing at a rate that I can no longer keep up with. I try to find substitutes when I can but "discontinued" seems to be the norm these days.
