    Quick Project Steps

    Start the bezel: Begin with a peyote stitch using 8/0 Delica beads to create a loop. Add structure: Incorporate RounDuo and EVA beads for additional stability and aesthetic. Enhance design: Use alternating rows of 11/0 and 15/0 beads to fill gaps and add depth. Secure the structure: Continue adding layers of beads, securing them tightly to ensure the design holds its shape. Final touches: Add decorative elements like additional color or beads for aesthetic purposes. Finish the piece: Secure all threads and add backing if desired for use as a brooch or pendant.
