Materials needed: 10 top drilled bicones (all the same size and the smaller the bicone to begin with the smaller the star will end up), clear thread (I use Fireline), 2 big eye beading needles (optional, I am personally too lazy to mess with them so I don't use them), scissors, lighter or thread burner or glue (I glue em cuz fire scares me), and knowledge of Right Angle Weave is helpful but not mandatory!
Step 1 - Cut a 12-15 inch length of your chosen thread.
Step 2 (Optional) - Thread one big eye needle on each end of the cut thread.
Step 3 - Thread 4 bicones onto the thread. 
Step 4 - Go through the first bicone on the left with the thread on the right, threading from left to right through the first bicone only. Pull tight, and you will have a diamond shape with a bicone at each point.
Step 5 - Add one bicone to each end of the thread. Add a second bicone to the thread on the left. 
Step 6 - Go through the second bicone you added in step 5 with the right thread, threading from left to right. 
Step 7 - Repeat step 6. You will have a strip of RAW that is 3 units long.
Step 8 -Go through the very first bicone in the strip with the left thread going from left to right and the right thread going right to left.
Step 9 - Pull tight to make a ball.Step 10 - Square knot the ends together. Carefully burn the ends of the thread to seal the knot or use a dab of glue like Hypo Cement. Snip thread ends when glue dries.
Step 11 - Allow to cool or dry, then use in your next design! They can be threaded on headpins, eyepins, wire, thread, etc. just like a bead.
DISCLAIMERS: I am not responsible for someone getting poked, cut, burned, etc! This is not a project for children as many dangerous supplies are used (fire, hot...needle and scissors, sharp...bicones, tiny). And as always, please supervise your little ones (both children and furry friends) around your workspace to prevent accidents, injuries, and/or a big ol mess! })i({
