Ok, this is how I am doing the beaded DC

Ok, here we go, LOL

First, I double crocheted a small piece of about 4 by 4. I cut it off from the ball of crochet thread I was using.

Then I completely unravelled it to add the beads.

This is the tool I used to add the beads to the cotton thread:

I pushed the skinny metal wire part through the bead leaving most of the skinny metal part outside. Then I ran the cotton yarn through the skinny metal prong dealie. Then I pulled it out to pull the yarn through the bead.

Does that make sense?

Then after doing that several times, I ended up with this:

So, I kept going adding the beads I wanted to and did the double crochet piece again, this time placing the beads at random and got this:

As you can see n this last picture, I still have a lot of cotton thread and beads to double crochet.

Does this help yawl see what I am doing? I am trying to include each step as I go through it.
Did I leave anything out?
