    Quick Project Steps

    Gather all materials and prepare your bead mat.
    Start with the right angle weave using 8/0 Delicas, creating a base quickly due to their larger size.
    Add a stop bead to your thread to prevent beads from falling off.
    Begin weaving the first row of the right angle weave, paying attention to the larger holes of the Delicas.
    After completing the first row, proceed to add another row of RAW on top.
    Introduce embellishments using Potomac Crystal Bicones 3mm.
    Attach the clasp to one end of the bracelet.
    Add thread as needed to continue your work.
    Complete the second row of crystal embellishments and attach the clasp to the opposite side.
    Optionally, add a row of seed beads for additional decoration.
    Tie off the thread ends securely.
    Add a Rivoli to the clasp for a final touch.

    I love everything about Potomac beads, except for the dragon fire white thread. I bought the time before it was a 250 spool and I bought 5 pound because the 6 pound I had was just humongous you've done some changing with your threads since the last time I bought some. I fell and broke my right arm and my rotator cuff and wasn't able to be for quite a while. I just pulled out the 5 pound white thread. I bought the time before and tried it. I don't even think I could bezel with it. The 6 pound does beautiful. I took one arm span of thread off the spool and I won't be using it. It's a shame because I truly love yours thread.
