✅ Step 3: String a 4mm fire-polished bead onto the Color B strands.
✅ Step 4: String one 8mm fire-polished bead onto both colors of beading wire on both sides and tighten.
✅ Step 5: Working on the Color A wire on each side, string three 8mm fire-polished beads and continue through the 8mm bead added in Step 4 to form a square.
✅ Step 6: String a 4mm fire-polished bead onto each end of the Color B beading wire.
✅ Step 7: Pass the ends of the Color A wire through opposite sides of one 8mm fire-polished bead and pull to tighten, closing the center of the pendant.
✅ Step 8: String one 8mm fire-polished bead onto both strands of beading wire.
