    Quick Project Steps

    Prepare Your Materials: Gather all beads, the Rivoli, beading needle, and thread.
    Begin the Bezel: Start with an alternating pattern of Miyuki Delica beads, tying them into a loop to start the peyote stitch.
    Integrate the Rivoli: After establishing the base with Delica beads, add the Rivoli to the center and secure it with additional rows of beads, pulling tightly to bezel.
    Add Finishing Touches: Use 15/0 Seed Beads to tighten the bezel around the Rivoli, ensuring it's secure and centered.
    Final Adjustments: If desired, add a wire guard for converting into a pendant or earrings.

    It was a little difficult to understand how the kit subscription worked, and I’m still not sure if I’ve subscribed to the right thing. Please let me know if I have done the right thing.
