Hi, this is Julie with beadaholique.com ski crystal fancy stones I've just pulled a couple shapes here there are others available because you have a pair a clover and a Buddha I didn't see what these stones look like on the back they're usually pointed which is why it's really nice to have a setting to place them down into and these settings are also beatable where they have little holes on the sides so you can work them into your stringing wire projects and other projects as well so you'll see I'm gonna take one here and I'm gonna actually set the stone the setting here is rhodium plated vo so chemic gold plated and it has little prongs along the edges and these are shaped to fit the same fancy stone as you see here with the Buddha I'm going to just set it into the setting and then my tool is going to be a popsicle stick because I don't want to actually scratch or damage the stone itself so I'm just gonna take the popsicle stick and press the prong over the top of the stone I'm not having to use a lot of pressure on this so I'm just bending that prong over this stone I'm going to do that for all the prongs and then you can even go from the bottom up and roll it over the top and because you're just using a popsicle stick you really don't have to worry about damaging the crystal there we go and this is now set into place and we're ready to use it for our jewelry project I'll show you the pair one and then here is the clover these settings along with others and of course that match from fancy stones are available at beadaholique you
