    Quick Project Steps

    Preparing the Felt Base: Cut stiff felt to size and glue the cabochon in place. Adding Seed Beads: Surround the cabochon with a row of 11/0 seed beads, followed by additional rows and colors for embellishment. Incorporating Leaf Beads: Glue and sew leaf beads in place, ensuring they are evenly spaced around the cabochon. Creating the Tassel: Use a 4mm bead as the core, wrapping it with sets of five 11/0 seed beads, and adding fringe for a delicate effect. Attaching the Tassel: Secure the tassel to the main piece, positioning it centrally for an elegant finish. Finishing Touches: Attach the backing and earring post or hook, ensuring all elements are securely in place.
