Brick Stitch with Pearls and Seed Beads: Add 3mm pearls and 11/0 seed beads around the outer edge using brick stitch. Create a Pointed Edge: Insert additional 11/0 seed beads between pearls for a pointed look. Add Wire Guard and Ear Wire: Attach a wire guard and ear wire for hanging the earring. Finishing Touches: Secure and trim the threads, and add the ear wire to complete the earring. Variations: Explore different ways to modify the outer edges and overall design.

    Love shopping with Potomac beads, but there always seems to be a problem with the discount being applied to my orders. If I contact CS they take care of the problem, but it's frustrating not the have it right the first time.
