Quick Project Steps

Introduce AVA beads into the design, alternating with the bricks to create the mountain peak effect.
Add seed beads along the sides for detail and structure.
Continue the pattern, creating layers and adding complexity to the bracelet design.
Finish by adding a clasp and securing the ends of the bracelet for a polished look.
