Go to Pinterest and type “cabochon seed beads”. You will find all kinds of ideas to build up your cab as far as you want to go. The cab is first glued to a backing such as Lacy’s stiff stuff. From there, seed beads are sewn around the cab, row after row. There are all kinds of beautiful design ideas.

If you visit Metalliferous.com you will find a wide variety of brass, copper, silver, wood and plastic elements. You can glue or rivet your findings to these decorative backings. They are price quite reasonably at $4-$5. Here’s a link to get started:
metalliferous.com/Cabs-Cameos/departments/1434/

You can also Google other jewelry supply sites, such as Fire Mountain or Rio Grande Jewelry supply, to find interesting shapes to add your cabochon and other elements.

Another search possibility is Etsy, for “vintage” odds and ends under “supplies” – You’ll probably have as much fun searching through all the possibilities as you will making it!

Have fun and make lots of jewelry!

Virginia

Floral Cluster Pendant.
