Gather materials and prepare your beading thread with a stop bead.
Start with a base row of 3mm Czech Faceted Rounds, separating them with 15/0 Miyuki seed beads.
Progress by adding layers of netting, increasing bead size from 3mm rounds to RounDuo® Minis and then RounTrio® beads for a graduated effect.
Incorporate Faceted RounTrio® for added dimension and sparkle.
