a Silver Round, a Clear AB Crystal, 6 White/Crystal Seed Beads, and 10

Step 4. Strand 2: String Lavender Seed Beads halfway
down the strand, then string the Cubist Pendant (at about 10 inches).
Continue to string Lavender Seed Beads on the rest of the strand.
Step 5. Strand 3: String White/Crystal Seed Beads
halfway down the strand, then string the Cubist Pendant (already on Strand
2). Continue to string White/Crystal Seed Beads on the rest of the
strand.
