    In this PotomacBeads tutorial, learn how to bezel a chaton and embellish around it to create this beautiful Be Blessed Component.
    Put 8 delicas onto about an arm’s span length of thread. Go back through a couple beads to make a circle. Pick up a delica and go back down the bead the thread is coming out of. Go back up through the current bead and add another delica to it. Use a ladder stitch to add one bead at a time until the prong is 5 beads long.
    Add a wire guard if you will be using the component as a pendant or earrings. Knot the thread through a bridge thread, pull tight and move the thread a few beads away and knot again. Burn the thread down flush with the project.
    The Be Blessed Component is a flexible, versatile design that’s easy to adapt to suit your style. Find all the supplies you need to to create this and more beautiful jewelry at PotomacBeads.
