    Quick Project Steps

    The crystal rivoli in the center of these Framed Fire earrings sparkles and shines, giving a warm glow that draws the eye. These fashionable earrings are suitable for beaders of all skill levels.
    To get started put a stop bead on the thread to hold the beads in place. You will begin with creating the frame with four Czech bugles separated by seed beads. Pull the thread into a loop. Add six seed beads to each corner.
    Add 5 seed beads in between each corner to form an interior frame for the Czech crystal to sit inside of. Thread on three 15/0s to the center 3 seed beads of each side of the frame. This finishes the front of the frame.
    Watch the Framed Fire earrings tutorial as Allie guides you step-by-step through the project. Tighten up the back of the earring by bringing the thread back through the beads to hold the crystal in place.

    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.
