🦉 3D Seed Bead Animal Bundle — 6 Patterns (PDF)
6 animals • circular peyote • 11/0 seed beads • one shared palette • 42 pages • A4 + US Letter
Six animals in the order you should make them. The owl is a closed round shape and nothing else — the simplest 3D piece there is. By the horse you're setting four legs and a mane, and you'll know exactly how you got there, because every animal in between taught you one new thing. ✨
All six share one palette, so you buy one colour range and make the whole set.
