    Quick Project Steps

    Gather Materials: Collect 10mm rivoli, size 11/0 Delica beads, size 15/0 seed beads, 8mm pearl, wire guard, ear wires, size 8 Dragon thread, needle, and scissors. Start Peyote Bezel: String 26 Delica beads and tie into a loop. Sew through the next two beads to move away from the knot. Add Rows to Bezel: Complete two more rows with 13 Delica beads each, following the peyote stitch pattern. Switch to size 15/0 seed beads and add two rows. Secure the Rivoli: Place the rivoli into the bezel and add another row of 15/0 seed beads to tighten. Sew through the last row without adding beads to further secure the rivoli. Attach Pearl: Sew through the first row of Delica beads and add a size 15/0 seed bead, followed by the pearl. Attach the wire guard and reinforce by sewing back through the beads. Finish Earring: Add additional Delica beads around the pearl and reinforce the thread by sewing back through the beads. Attach the ear wire using needle nose or chain nose pliers.
