How to create a solitaire necklace using a half-drilled bead!
1. Place the pendant / peg finding into some Blu Tack with the peg sticking upwards. Next, place a small dab of Beadfix glue (or similar superglue type of product) in the cup, being careful not to use too much!
2. Lower the half-drilled bead slowly onto the peg. It is advisable to have a piece kitchen roll to hand to soak up any excess glue that may be squeezed out right away. Be careful as glue will spoil the finish on the bead!
3. Leave until the glue has dried completely. The manufacturers' instructions usually recommend 24 hours to ensure total bonding. To finish, attach the loop of the finding on the pendant, to the chain or cord of your choice.
Easy! Happy beading!!
