    Quick Project Steps

    Gather Materials: Tublet beads. StormDuo beads in two colors (e.g., green and white). 11/0 seed beads. Dragon Thread (2-3 feet). Size 11 needle (size 10 or 12 can also be used). Wire guards and earring hooks. Prepare Thread and Beads: Thread 2-3 feet of Dragon Thread onto a size 11 needle. Arrange the StormDuo beads by their orientation (‘C’ and reverse ‘C’ shapes). Create the Base: Pick up alternating Tublet and StormDuo beads. Form a loop and secure with a knot to create the base shape. Add Seed Beads: Insert 11/0 seed beads between StormDuo pairs. Pass through all beads again to reinforce the design. Build the Floral Diamond Shape: Add additional StormDuos and seed beads to form a diamond shape. Repeat the pattern around the earring. Incorporate a Second Color: Introduce the second color of StormDuo beads. Place these beads in alternating positions for a layered floral effect. Reinforce the Design: Pass through all beads and connections multiple times for added durability. Attach the Wire Guard: Add a wire guard at the top of the earring and connect it to an ear hook. Ensure the thread is secure and tight. Finish the Earring: Trim excess thread and check for symmetry. Make final adjustments to ensure the earring hangs properly.
