July 2010 Beaded Seahorse Charm Project
You can find a variety of Free Arts and Craft Project here, including beaded project and other project. This month, I would like to feature the instruction on a beaded 3D Seahorse made with Japanese glass seed beads, using right angle weave beading technique. This is page 12 of the whole Seahorse tutorial!

Beaded 3D Sea Horse

The pictorials are illustrated with spaces between beads for a clearer direction, in the actual beading, there should be no spaces.
