    Quick Project Steps

    Create the Crystal Ring Earrings using a variety of crystal bicone beads used in an order to produce a ring of crystals. Change up the sizes and the design to make these into pendants or link them together for one amazing bracelet. 1. Cut a 5 foot piece of DragonThread and put a size 11 beading needle onto the end. Add a stop bead to the bottom of the thread and pick up a pattern of 4mm crystal, 6mm crystal bicone, 4mm, and lastly a 2mm crystal bicone bead with a 15/0 seed bead between each crystal. 2. Create your first right angle weave unit by sewing back through your beads in a circle and exit after your second 4mm bead. Continue to create RAW units with the 6mm bead at the top and 2mm bicone on the bottom. Watch the Crystal Ring video to learn how to finish the raw and close the ring. 3. After finishing your ring, add in extra seed beads along the outside of the piece to create an endless ring of crystals. Add a wire guard onto the piece and then hang an earwire. Create a second one to complete a matching set. The Crystal Ring Earrings will have you creating an endless supply of these components. Use graduated crystal in right angle weave to complete this perfect crystal ring. Change up the colors to create a Christmas wreath, sunflower, or rainbow design Project Length: 1 1/4"
