    Quick Project Steps

    Prepare the Base Circle: String seven Es-O beads alternating with three 11/0 seed beads onto your thread. Close into a circle by passing through the first Es-O bead again. Secure and Add the Cabochon: Go through the beads again to secure the circle. Place the two-hole cabochon in the center and pass through the beads to secure it in place. Layering: Use the second hole of the Halo beads to add another layer of Es-O beads and Halo beads, securing the cabochon further. Edging and Detailing: Add an outer layer by incorporating 15/0 seed beads around the Halo beads and inserting PC Round crystals at intervals for extra sparkle. Create the Bail: Use 15/0 seed beads and a PC Round crystal to create a loop (bail) at the top of the pendant for hanging. Finishing: Ensure all beads are securely in place and cut off any excess thread.
