Apollinariya Koprivnik aka Pika Polina Beads Oriental Pendant is really fun and easy to make, I just couldn't get a good photo of it. I decided to make a bracelette out of it in stead.

I Love Polina...

After taking her (Apollinariya Koprivnik aka Pika Polina Beads) online class and working many of her tutorials, I made this piece which uses many of her beaded components from her architectural beadwork. You can search (below right) for Polina to see her other creations I've blogged about.

Apollinariya Koprivnik, aka Pika Polina Beads...

Yes, she's (the Beaded Architecture Queen) not only one of my favorite, she is my most favorite beading designers, and I've just finished another one of her tutorials. Her Rhombus Earrings beaded by me...

Finished two of Apollinariya's Tutorials...

See my previous post about this fascinating beader.

I have finished two of her many tutorials she has for sale on her site. This first one is her Morocco Earrings...

The second one I finished is her Lunasoft (I love Lunasoft!!!) Earrings...

These were easy and fun to make.

Have I mentioned Svetlana Kossman?

Good for you if you're already familiar with Svetlana's beadwork. However, I just found her, so I'm soo excited to share. Her work is somewhat similar to  recently discovered Polinas', with layers of detailed architecture and numerous components, but also soo originally different at the same time. "Amazing Beading" is what I call Svetlana and Polina's beadwork, while I call everything else (of course including mine "plain beading".

Svetlana's Beaded Treasures book is definitely a keeper, I've purchased sooo many books in the past 17 years that I put a lot up for sale on Amazon, but not this one!!!

Look for her work on Instagram, and Pinterest also.

Here are some of my favorites by Svetlana...

Architectural Beadwork by Apollinariya (Polina) Koprivnik...

Polina creates one of a kind pieces of jewelry that are totally original. I've never seen anything like her beadwork. Every once in a while a bead artist comes along and blows everyone's socks off. Well because of the wonderful Pinterest application (I made a board with just her beadwork), I have recently come across Polina's beadwork. She lives in Slovenia, and is originally from Russia. She's a beautiful young woman barely 30 years of age.

She's not that new, she's been beading up a storm for a few years now.

Here are just a few of her magnificent pieces which she posts on Instagram...

I predict she will be one of the most famous world known bead artist. I know I'll never be able to produce anything like she does, but it's fun to try.  I don't take beading classes any more because I have trouble sitting so long but if and when she is in my neck of the woods I shall take a class of hers. But thank the Lord she has tutorials!!! I just finished two of her tutorials below...
