Quick Project Steps

Start with threading two needles with Wildfire or Fireline thread, leaving a 4-inch tail.
Drop one 6mm bead to the bottom, add a bicone on each side, then cross the thread through another 6mm bead.
Repeat adding bicones and crossing through 6mm beads until you have four 6mm beads and all eight bicones in place.
To create a cross section, add three 11/0 seed beads on each needle, cross through a single seed bead, and repeat around the bead.
Sew through all bicones to stiffen the bead, optionally adding a seed bead between bicones for extra decoration.
Finish by tying the threads together and applying a dab of glue to secure.
