    Add Gemstones: Incorporate the 6mm opalite beads into the RAW base, securing each with 15/0 seed beads on either side.
    Adjust Bracelet Size: Ensure the RAW base wraps comfortably around your wrist, adjusting the number of RAW units as necessary.
    Attach the Clasp: Secure the Potomax Rivoli Bezel Clasp to the ends of the bracelet, reinforcing the attachment with additional passes through the beads and clasp.
    Embellish: Add 2mm labradorite beads along the edges for a finished look, and consider additional embellishments as desired.
