    Put a stop bead on about four feet of thread. Thread through the sunflower crystal. Add on three seed beads and then an EVA. Put on five more seed beads and bring the thread back down through the EVA to decorate the top of the bead. Add two more seed beads and go back through the crystal.
    Add another EVA bead to the other side of the crystal using the same method. Pull the thread tight. Thread on three seed beads and go through the side hole of the crystal, add another three seed beads and sew down through the top of the crystal. Continue to line the back of the crystal.
