    Quick Project Steps

    Preparation: Gather your materials including the druzy agate cabochon, Delica beads (11/0), and seed beads (15/0).
    Bezel Start: Begin by stringing an even number of Delica beads (11/0) to fit snugly around your cabochon using the peyote stitch.
    Peyote Stitching: Continue with the peyote stitch, adjusting bead count based on the cabochon's thickness, ensuring a tight fit without overstressing the beads.
    Detailing: Transition to smaller seed beads (15/0) for the outer rows to create a scalloped effect and tighten the bezel around the cabochon.
    Bail Creation: Using ladder stitch, create a bail for the pendant, ensuring it's appropriately sized for your necklace chain or cord.
    Finishing: Secure and trim thread ends, using a thread burner for a neat finish. Optionally, apply glue for extra security.

    It was a little difficult to understand how the kit subscription worked, and I’m still not sure if I’ve subscribed to the right thing. Please let me know if I have done the right thing.
