Quick Project Steps
Thread the needle with about 5 feet of beading thread, securing a stop bead at one end.
Begin the necklace by stringing a crystal bicone flanked by two silver Miyuki seed beads, followed by a gold seed bead, four silver seed beads, and another gold bead.
Add a faceted rondelle bead, ensuring to alternate between gold and silver seed beads for aesthetic consistency.
Continue the pattern, creating a zigzag effect by weaving back through certain beads to form triangles.
Reinforce the clasp by attaching it with wire protectors, ensuring durability and a professional finish.
Repeat the pattern, maintaining tension in the thread for a clean, tight weave until reaching the desired length.
Finish the necklace by securing and trimming the thread, then attaching the clasp and extension chain as desired.

Received package of 6x12mm amethyst daggers in two sizes! 14 correct size 6x12mm but the rest were a lot bigger! I will only be able to make 7 sets of Glamorous earrings! Couple of EVA beads did not have the second hole. I could not even make a hole! Overall, thank you !!
I've been having a hard time finding shanks and you have all "colors" -- I will definitely be back for more. thank you so much. Glad I found you.

I receive the wrong item I ordered. I ordered a clear acrylic bead sorter and received a wooden one that had barely visible letters and numbers. I asked for the clear acrylic one to be sent to me - as that is what I ordered - and agreed to return the wooden one if a postage paid address label was sent to me. Nobody answered.
