    Quick Project Steps

    Start by threading your needle with 5 feet of beading thread, securing a cup button as the closure.
    Create the outer design by threading through the cup button, adding seed beads, and forming the loop.
    Assemble the eye components using silky beads for the eye's center and two-hole bar beads for structure, interspersed with seed beads and crystals for embellishment.
    Link components by weaving through the beads, ensuring a tight and secure structure.
    Finish the bracelet by creating a loop large enough for the cup button, ensuring a neat closure.
    Reinforce the structure by retracing your steps through the beads, tightening the thread.
