    Begin with a series of triangles that you will make using Herringbone and Peyote stitches. String on 4 Delicas followed by 4 seed beads and tie into a knot.

    Put pearl beads on the corners at the front and connect with pearl beads. Go around the dome bead a couple times to hold it in securely. Add the wireguard and earwire and you're done. Looking for a nice little design that doesn't take much time to make?
