Can I create a cross pendant with gemstone beads?

Creating Cross Pendants

You don't have to use a large, pre-drilled gemstone for your cross pendant. Try creating your own cross out of small gemstone beads. You can create a cross with different colors, graduated sizing, and any number of unique elements. Using small pendant beads to create a gemstone cross is also a good way to use up a few leftover beads. A beaded cross pendant would be stunning with a gold or silver chain, but you could also create a beaded necklace to match the cross with smaller beads, or a combination of cord and beads. Spend some time at your bead wholesaler to see the many different items they carry. You can get fresh ideas for cross pendants and other designs simply by browsing in the bead store for a few hours.
