A simple square stitch bail for a donut pendant


Materials & Tools:

Large donut of desired color (40 - 60 mm is a good size range)
Brass mesh necklace, 18 inches (Fire Mountain Gems and Beads)
11/0 Delica seed beads
Beading thread
Beading needle


Basic directions for square stitch can be found at many online sites.


1 Using a mixture of bead colors, square stitch a small band that is long enough to wrap through the donut hole and around the mesh wire necklace, with just enough slack to keep it from rubbing or binding.

2 Continue following the square stitch thread path to attach the ends to each other.

3 Enjoy different color combinations!
