Use the galvanized starlight beads on either end of the bugle beads and the black diamond beads in the middle.

Tip: Check package quantities for each component. You may have extra material to make more than one finished project, or will have leftovers for other projects. In some cases, adding on just one more package of a component may be all you need to make multiple pieces.
