Materials Used To make The  Project

Quick Project Steps

Create a unique look using Potomac PieDuo beads and DropDuo beads to make a bezel to fit a 28mm cabochon. Use Potomac Crystals in a 2mm bicone shape to add a little bling to the cabochon. 1. Cut a 5 foot piece of DragonThread and put a size 11 beading needle onto the end. Add a stop bead leaving a 3" tail and begin by adding a series of 3 11/0 seed beads, a PieDuo, 3 more 11/0 seed beads and back down the second hole of the PieDuo. 2. Watch the Mountain's Calling Necklace video to see how to bring the PieDuo beads into a star shape to create the bezel. Once you have that bezel add the DropDuo beads to the design and continue. 3. Once you add all of the beads add your bail to the top of the design and then create a necklace to hang your pendant on. This fun and unique design can be used for rivoli as well so try out the Mountain's Calling Necklace with additional materials from the Best Bead Box Kit addition. Project Length: Necklace: 16" Pendant: 1 3/4"
