    Quick Project Steps

    Bezeling the Rivolis:
    Start with the 14mm Rivoli, using Duracoat Galvanized Silver Delica beads for the netting.
    Create a base ring of Delica beads, then add layers to secure the Rivoli in place.
    Repeat the process for the 10mm Rivoli, adjusting the bead count for the smaller size.
    Assembling the Bracelet:
    Use .006 Wildfire beading thread with two needles, one on each end.
    Begin with a Cup Button for the clasp, adding seed beads for decoration.
    Alternate the bezeled Rivolis, connecting them with Delica beads and Magic Blue 11/0 seed beads.
    Finish with a loop of seed beads to secure the other end of the clasp.
