How to Bezel a 27mm Cabochon

1. String on 66 11o delicas and move them to the end of your thread leaving enough string to be able to tie your knot in step 3.


2. Run your needle back up through all the beads you've just added forming a circle.


3. Tie your ends to make a knot then cut your tail.


4. Run your needle through a few beads to hide your knot.


5. Pick up 1 11o skip the bead next to the bead your thread is coming out of and go through the next bead. (tubular peyote)


6. Do that all the way around your work then step up through the first bead you added to get ready for your next round.


7. Work your way into the center of your work.


8. Pick up 1 15o and go through the next 11o.


9. Do this all the way around. Then work your way back to the outside of your work.


10. Do two rows of tubular peyote using 11o delicas.






11. Then place your stone face down into the setting you've just made.


12. Then do another row of tubular peyote using 11o delicas.


13. Then do two rows of tubular peyote using 15o tohos.






Then your all finished :)

This is the base I used for the center of this necklace.

Flower

It seems every time I sit down to bead I create something with a flower in it. These flowers took an hour and a half each to make. I hope you like it :)

Green and Cream

I really love these big swarovski focals in netted necklaces. This one is in the color Chrysolite it's a beautiful minty green color.

It's really difficult to take photos of a necklace on yourself. I took probably 20 photos if not more and these two were the only ones that came out half way decent. Oh and on a side note I'VE GRADUATED!!!!!!!! I'm so excited I've been home schooled since 8th grade and I graduated about two weeks ago a year earlier than I would have in public school so YAY. :)

Happy Beading,
