    Gather Materials: Collect all required beads, thread, needle, and tools. Stringing the Base Loop: Pick up 7 Half Tila Beads, with an 11/0 seed bead in between each Tila. Create a loop and tie a knot to secure. Adding the Second Row: Step up from the interior to the exterior hole of each Half Tila. Add an 11/0 seed bead before and after each Half Tila bead. Securing the Chaton: Insert the Chaton into the bezel. Add three 15/0 seed beads between each Half Tila to tighten the bezel. Reinforce by adding 11/0 seed beads and sewing through the beads again. Adding Wire Guards and Earwires: Attach wire guards to the top of the beadwork. Secure earwires to the wire guards. Final Reinforcements: Go through all beads one more time to ensure tightness. Tie off and trim excess thread.
