I’ve been sitting on this stone for about two years now and I finally finished it. Yay! The cabochon around the stone is entirely made of beads, unlike the more traditional way of using a backing. I prefer to use only beads as I can let the back to the stone peep though.

I got this stone with my sister and mother on the way back from visiting the redwoods in California. There was this cute little bead shop that I just had to go in, and well I couldn’t just leave empty handed so I got the crazy lace agate cabochon as well as the beads to match there. It was called Angela’s Bead Art on main street in the quaint town of Weaverville CA.
