    Quick Project Steps

    Prepare Your Materials: Gather cup buttons, crystal rivolis, Miyuki seed beads, cotton thread, scissors, a wide-eyed needle, tape, and a 25mm closed ring.
    Macrame Basics: Start with the macrame technique using three colored threads to understand the basic knots.
    Apply Macrame to the Ring: Use the macrame technique on a 25mm ring, securing it with tape at your work area's edge.
    Thread and Bead Preparation: Cut an arm span and a half of cotton thread and thread it through the ring, finding the midpoint to start.
    Adding Seed Beads: Begin adding seed beads (18 galvanized gold recommended) to the thread, using the macrame technique to secure each bead around the ring.
    Continue Beading: Keep adding beads, making sure to space them evenly around the ring. After every fourth bead, adjust your working area if needed.
    Final Bead Addition: As you reach the end of the ring, ensure the spacing is even and prepare for bezel making without glue.
