Instructions

Note: Components and tools listed within this INSTRUCTIONS box and the printer-friendly PDF, if available, may have been discontinued since this project was published. Refer to the PURCHASE COMPONENTS and TOOLS AND OTHER SUPPLIES sections for current availability.

Please find a scrap piece of wire or a toothpick to apply the glue with before beginning this project.
  1. Take a small amount of E6000 glue, and using a toothpick or scrap wire as an applicator, smear the glue on the flat surface of the bezel's interior surface. So that you do not need to rush, only smear it over half of the surface to begin with.
  2. Starting along the edge, begin placing your Tila Beads into the glue in a checkerboard design. See photo.
  3. 5 Tila Beads will fit length wise and 5 will fit width wise in the square ring. A total of 25 Tila Beads will be used in this project.
  4. After you have tiled all the area where glue was present, take your applicator and apply glue to the remaining area.
  5. Finish setting your Tila Beads into the glue.
  6. When all the beads have been placed, pat their tops down with your finger so that all the beads are firmly set into the glue.
  7. Let dry in an upright position overnight.
