    Quick Project Steps

    Begin with 18mm Rivoli: Start with Hubble Stitch around the 18mm rivoli using 11/0 and 8/0 seed beads. Add Smaller Rivolis: Incorporate 14mm and 10mm rivolis, adjusting the count of Hubble Stitch units. Embellish with Seed Beads: Use 11/0 and 15/0 seed beads to add decorative details around the rivolis. Create Outer Edge: Embellish the outer edge of each rivoli section with crystals and additional seed beads for a sparkling effect. Connect Pendant Pieces: Use right angle weave to connect different pendant pieces. Choose a layout that suits your style (e.g., cascading or clustered). Finish with Bail: Add a bail to the pendant using Herringbone Stitch for hanging on a chain or cord. Final Touches: Tidy up any loose threads and ensure all beads are securely in place.

    Still had trouble finding the spot where my creator cash was expected it to be with coupons. But that is my problem. The website is fine. The products are fantastic and customer service is wonderful.

    I've been playing with my order for over a month. When the free past "Treasure Box" was offered for an order over 50.00, I placed my order. Shipping was to long. Website says next day shipping if order is received by 1pm . My order was placed on a Friday and their post office received it Wednesday. And, when it finally arrived, I didn't get my free Treasure Box. I had to send another email. It finally came today and the beads are to make something Christmas. No pattern, no guide or anything. Just a small box of winter and snow themed beads. My experience was not what I was hoping for. Q
