    You’ll love all the sparkle and shine this Glenda bracelet has to offer. Learn how to use a simple bezel to add in the Potomac crystal rivolis in this tutorial.
    1.Put a stop bead onto size 6 Dragonthread. String a series of delica, 2 bicones, delica, 2 bicones. Sew back through the first 3 beads, then down through the next delica and crystal. Add 2 seed beads and sew through the last crystal and the first delica and crystal.
    2.Watch the Glenda Bracelet and follow along with Allie as she shows you how to create this beautiful crystal bracelet.
    3.Once you have the bracelet the length that you like, add the clasp. Use seed beads to attach the clasp to the bracelet and reinforce three times. Weave the thread back into the project and tie a knot. Glue a rivoli into the Potomax round rivoli push clasp. Take off the stop bead on the other side and add the tongue of the clasp.
    There are tons of modifications you can do with the Glenda bracelet. It bends nicely to make a necklace and the bezeled crystals can be used as a component for a matching pair of earrings. Whichever you choose, you’ll enjoy showing off your beautiful beaded creations.
