Learn how to bezel an 18mm rivoli crystal with the use of size 8 and size 11 seed beads. This crystal pendant project uses hubble stitch and netting to create the perfect Brilliant Bezel.
Prepare the Bezel Base: Start with a loop of 12 primary color 8/0 seed beads, adding one secondary color bead for learning purposes.
First Hubble Stitch Round: Using 8/0 seed beads, create Hubble stitch units around the loop, adding an 11/0 seed bead between each unit.
Second Hubble Stitch Round: Transition to 11/0 seed beads for a tighter round, pulling the bezel inwards, and use 15/0 seed beads between units to secure the rivoli crystal.
Tightening the Bezel: Add two 15/0 seed beads between the top 11/0 beads of the second Hubble stitch round to tighten the bezel around the crystal.
Decorating the Outer Edge: Embellish the outer edge with 2 or 3mm crystals, using 15/0 seed beads to attach each crystal.
Attaching the Loop Bail: Secure the loop bail to the back of the pendant for a polished finish.

Too much scrolling to find your product or color even with the filters. The filters don’t allow you to see all of the color choices for an item at one glance for example. You spend too much time finding what you want. It gets frustrating!

It's obnoxious that the site tries to sell customers other things during the checkout process. The purchase button is brighter and more noticeable than the "No thanks" button, which probably tricks many naive customers and makes them not want to shop here again.
