Thread through the beads, alternating between adding seed beads and connecting RounDuo Minis to form the initial layer.
Construct a bezel around the 10mm rivoli by weaving through the beads, tightening the structure to secure the rivoli.
Transition to the backside of the pendant to reinforce the bezel and add decorative elements.
