    Quick Project Steps

    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.

    I don't like being pushed to buy other things - twice! - at checkout. Also if I am paying with PayPal I wish you set it up like other sites where my address etc autofills from PayPal instead of me having to enter it by hand, it just feels so inefficient. Shipping seems very high for a small bag of shanks, and for a first-time shopper on your site, asking me to pay over $75 to get free shipping is a lot. Looking forward to the actual product, however! If I like it, I will be back, but I didn't enjoy the shopping process, since you asked.
