Halloween is right around the corner — the time of year when people celebrate everything scary and spooky.

It's definitely not my thing.

I hate horror movies and anything frightening. I have a very active imagination and don't need any help letting it run away from me.

Even so, I thought I'd make a beading pattern that could fit with this occasion. I designed a pair of beaded earrings called Dark Bloom. They look like buds that are just starting to open up into flowers.

This earring tutorial is suitable for intermediate skill levels.
