Learn how to make a cute beaded fish motif which can be used to make earrings, a necklace or bracelet. I am using beads from the May 2025 Treasure Box from Potomac Beads, but if you do not have the Treasure Box you may have many of the beads in your stash. I will put links below to the supplies I'm using on the Potomac Beads website.
Also, if you are interested in finding out more about the monthly subscription boxes from Potomac Beads including pricing, types of boxes available, etc. please click here:

Each month I design at least one project from the Treasure Box, so you can follow along and bead with me!
