Hey beautiful! ✿ It’s Gina from orchidandopal.com. If you have already practiced the Right Angle Weave (RAW) beading stitch and the Cubic Right Angle Weave (CRAW) stitch, then you're ready to have some fun with the Prismatic Right Angle Weave (PRAW) stitch! In fact, if you have already successfully tried CRAW, you are well on your way to mastering PRAW. The CRAW stitch is actually a form of the PRAW stitch.
✿ The basis of PRAW is in its name; the word prism. With the PRAW stitch, you can create numerous sizes of beaded ropes, made out of prismatic shapes; one unit stacked on top of another. See below for recommended materials, and for my blog post with written instructions and diagrams. Enjoy!

GENERAL:
✿ Copyright: Pertaining to Orchid and Opal original jewelry designs, please do NOT reproduce, or copy video content, or written instructions, in any format, without my consent. You may email me to inquire about discounted pricing for written patterns used in group instruction.
✿ Credit: Artists spend countless hours perfecting their designs from concept to completion. I have the utmost respect for other artists, and the time/energy behind their original designs. I will always make a point to give credit where credit is due because I expect the same in return. Please note: In some rare circumstances, beading designs may overlap with others; after all, there are only so many combinations of beads to put together. Also, it is entirely possibly for artists to simply “be on the same wavelength.” "Great minds think alike," and all that. :)
✿ Selling: You may sell any of the jewelry you have made from my tutorials. If you are able to credit, or tag me, as the designer, it is much appreciated.

There's filming, photographing, editing, maintaining a website, working with partners, responding to comments, and much more that goes unseen. I state this to let you know (1) how passionate I am about what I do, and also (2) I am human, I make mistakes, and have to balance all of this with a life. I strive to thoroughly research topics, educate myself, and present you with the most accurate content, to the very best of my ability.
✿ Commenting: I am honored to have you here! In order to maintain an upbuilding environment, please note that I have no tolerance for hate speech, bullying, spam, or comments that rudely criticize others, or myself, without the intent of offering constructive suggestions.
