    Quick Project Steps

    Begin with alternating 8/0 and 11/0 seed beads to create a loop as the base for the cabochon.
    Add groupings of three 11/0 seed beads atop each 11/0 in the base loop to form a crown-like structure.
    Progress by adding 8/0 seed beads between the crown points, stepping up to create a second row mirroring the first.
    Continue building layers, securing the cabochon with a snug bezel formed by the seed beads.
    Embellish the outer edge of the bezel with Czech Faceted Rounds and additional seed beads for a decorative finish.
    Create a bail using a square stitch technique, ensuring a secure loop for hanging the pendant.
