    Quick Project Steps

    Prepare Your Materials: Gather all beads, a needle, and thread. Start with a stop bead to secure your work.
    Begin the Peyote: Using the three-drop peyote stitch, start building your first layer with your chosen color scheme.
    Create Additional Layers: Continue with the peyote stitch, adding layers in your selected colors. Pay attention to the order to achieve the desired layered effect.
    Connect the Layers: Once your peyote sections are complete, overlap them slightly and use your thread to stitch them together, ensuring they are securely attached.
    Finish the Necklace: Add a necklace component by stringing beads or creating a beaded chain to attach to either side of the peyote sections. Finish with a clasp or button for closure.
    Add Embellishments (Optional): Consider adding drops or other decorative elements to enhance the layered look or create additional pieces such as earrings for a matching set.

    Reviews indicate supplies may not be complete. I was hoping to ship this to another address but didn’t see that option available. So I’ll need to pay two shipping fees.

    Found it extremely difficult to bring up “oval clasp”. Searched the whole site and would key in “oval clasp” and wouldn’t come up. Was ready to cancel order out of frustration.
