Beautiful zig zag design is made with size 11 and size 15 seed beads giving it a textured look.

Pattern includes pictures of a single row and a double row plus a picture of a necklace strap in single row, step by step illustration and text instructions.
This tutorial will focus more on technique instead of exact supplies. Many of us already have everything needed in our stash closet to make similar earrings. I picked up these beautiful Paua shell cabochons from Fire Mountain Gems with the intention of doing a beaded bezel. Tried as I may, my labors proved fruitless. These were so thin, or low profile, that it wouldn't hold it's shape. Or it flip flops around until I just give up on getting that thing in there.
This technique works perfectly as you can see from the photo. I had the thought of cutting out a picture, covering it with clear plastic on the top and cushioning the back with an extra piece of the stiff stuff, and then continue with the techniques as written in this tutorial. It would make a beautiful fob! Or, what about encasing some cameos! Too thin for a bezel? Not for this!

I surfed the internet for quite a few hours trying to find a good tutorial on 2 drop peyote to recommend to our customers. I could only find a tutorial for odd count peyote in video format. When they got to the part about the turn at the end of row 3, I knew this just wouldn't do. So I set out to create a wonderful tutorial for my friends.
