  2. Sew through an outer hole of your beadable pendant.
  3. Pick up 7 beads (do variation of reds and green, using more green than reds).
  4. Sew down the hole across the channel. (The beads wont be sitting in the channel.)
  5. Sew up through the next hole and repeat steps 3 and 4.
  6. You will repeat this process, zigzagging through the pendant until you have gone all the way around.
  7. While on the backside of your pendant, sew up the next hole and through the first seed bead. Pick up 4 seed beads, sew across the channel, down the last delica bead and through the hole.
  8. Repeat step 7 as you sew back through the beadable pendant again.
  9. Once you’ve finished, tie off your thread ends and cut off excess.
  10. Open your earring loop and slide your beadable wreath on.
  11. Repeat all steps for other earring.
