This Snowmen Beaded Star, a Christmas ornament is my second peyote star, the first being the Poinsettia Beaded Star.
This snowman beaded star:
- was crafted in peyote stitch
- made with approximately 8,400 (delica) beads
- xx
- approx. 18 colours
- inserted with stuffing for shaping
Snowmen Beaded Star was from a paid pattern named “Snowmen 3D Peyote Star Beading Pattern” by The Tales of Beads (on Etsy) in Dec 2018 for A$9.20 This is a very well written tutorial, comes in a 5-part download, with written as well as graphical illustration.
(I thought I would prefer the graphical illustration as I normally do with all things crafty, but the written instructions turned out to be much easier for me to follow).
Tip:
structured 3D peyote beading like this has a firmer body structure when using Delica beads rather than the round rocailles.

In May 2023, Snowman Beaded Christmas Star was gifted to my brother, Syl. I know it is now in good hands - in the hands of someone who loves to decorate and fill his home with festive cheer.
