    Quick Project Steps

    Begin with stringing a pattern using chosen beads (rondelles, tubes, angel wings, drops). Ensure that there are at least 20 seed beads (11/0) on both sides of the necklace for the peyote tube to fit. Create sections about 24 inches long, ensuring they can fit over the neck. Add 10 more beads to start the fringe. Create fringe by branching out with additional beads, using different sizes and types for variation. Finish by securing the ends and adding the peyote tube.

    I had a hard time navigating your web site. Took too long to find everything I was looking for. When I go into the search bar I expect to have that item come up. Specifically I was looking for miniduo beads. This is the first time I've ordered from you. We'll see how it goes.
