Add Crystals and Embellishments: Attach 2mm crystals and 15/0 seed beads to the top of each dagger for dimension. Reinforce the thread to maintain the structure. Centerpiece Pearl: Place a 6mm pearl in the center by threading through the base's 11/0 seed beads. Complete the Earrings: Add wire guards and attach earring hooks. Secure and reinforce for durability. Create the Bracelet (Optional): Repeat the earring design multiple times to form components for the bracelet. Connect each section with small right-angle weave units. Attach Clasp: Secure the ends of the bracelet with a decorative clasp for a polished finish. Customize: Experiment with bead colors, sizes, and arrangements to create unique designs.
