    Quick Project Steps

    Start with creating a square frame using Bugle beads and 11/0 seed beads, connecting each Bugle bead with an 11/0.
    Embellish each corner of the square frame with groups of three 11/0 seed beads.
    Secure a 10mm Rivoli at the center using a series of 11/0 and 15/0 seed beads to create a snug bezel.
    Enhance the cross's arms by ladder-stitching additional Bugle beads onto each side, forming a triangular shape.
    Add decorative edges around the Rivoli and the outer frame with 11/0 seed beads to finalize the pendant’s detailed look.
    Consider making a simple chain using leftover Bugle beads and 15/0 seed beads for a cohesive finish.
