Step 5: String the beads for the second dangle in this sequence:
* 2 black seed beads
* 3 white seed beads
* 1 black bugle bead
* 3 white seed beads
* 3 black seed beads
* 6 silver seed beads
Secure them with a bottom loop in the same way that we did the first dangle.
You may have noticed that we added two more beads to the top of this dangle. We will continue to add two more beads each time until we have completed the middle (4th) dangle. At that time we will subtract two beads each time until we get to the end. Adding and subtracting beads in this manner will give a nice stair-step effect to the bottom of the earrings.

Just by looking through your directions, I do mine a different way. I will have to try it your way and see which I like better. My dangles are always added last.
