    Quick Project Steps

    Gather all materials: 8mm pearl, 6mm crystal, 4mm pearl, 4mm crystal, 8/0, 11/0, and 15/0 seed beads, wire guard, and ear wire. Start with the 8mm pearl, add an 8/0 seed bead, and pass the needle back through the pearl to secure the bead. Add another 8/0 bead and secure it similarly. Add the 6mm bead, and wrap it with three 8/0 and four 11/0 beads on each side, securing by passing through the 8/0 beads. Repeat the process with the 4mm pearl, using 15/0 seed beads to create a smaller bezel. Add the final 4mm crystal and secure it with an 8/0 seed bead. Attach the wire guard at the top and reinforce by passing the thread through multiple times. Knot the thread securely and use a thread burner to finish. Attach the ear wire by opening it sideways, sliding on the wire guard, and closing it securely.

    I love buying from Potomac, shopping is easy and the order arrives in a timely fashion. This was my first time buying kits, I love that I have extra beads now to add to my stash! I will be looking for more sales on kits to purchase again! Thank you for all you do to make my beading addiction more fun!
