    Quick Project Steps

    Gather Materials: Prepare StormDuos, Potomac Pearls, Crystal Bicones, Mini SuperDuo beads, and Miyuki Seed Beads in the suggested sizes. Begin with the Center Pearl: Attach a pearl to your thread, securing it with seed beads. Add the First Layer: Integrate StormDuos around the pearl, ensuring they sit like open tulips. Build the Snowflake Shape: Add Mini Duos and seed beads between the StormDuos, forming the iconic snowflake design. Incorporate Crystal Bicones: Enhance the design with crystal bicones for added sparkle. Attach Ear Wires: Secure the earrings with wire guards and attach ear wires. Finish and Secure: Reinforce the thread paths for durability and trim excess thread. Optional Variations: Experiment with different colors or bead types for varied themes (e.g., floral instead of snowflake).
