  • Step-By-Step Instructions

    Enjoy the sleek, polished look of Potomac pearls in the Lustrous Beauty Necklace. Learn how to use a super simple stringing technique to create this project in this PotomacBeads tutorial. 1. Put a stop bead onto some size 6 Wildfire. Using a size 10 needle, pick up five 8/0 seed beads and a 4mm bead. Continue the pattern for 18 inches. When you are finished the length, add a cup button to the end of the strand using 11/0 seed beads. 2. Watch the Lustrous Beauty Necklace tutorial with Allie to see how she completes the design used in the pearl necklace. 3. When you get to the end of the design, reinforce the button to strengthen the clasp. Bring the thread back through the project to get back to the stop bead and tighten up the necklace. Have fun making the Lustrous Beauty Necklace. This quick project would make a great last minute gift. Why not try adding Potomac crystals for some more bling? Technique learned:
