Learn a simple alternative method to achieving a bezeled look in this PotomacBeads tutorial. Create a dazzling Faux Bezeled Pear Drop Pendant with ease.
Place the Potomac crystal pear drop into the setting. Use pliers to bend the prongs down onto the crystal to hold it in place. Put a stop bead on size 6 DragonThread. Sew through the first hole in the setting from the inside out. Add seven 11/0s and thread across through the top holes. Add seven more 11/0s and thread through the bottom hole of the setting.
