    Quick Project Steps

    Preparing the Beads: Check all bead holes, thread the needle with about 3.5 feet of Dragon thread. Starting the Base: Begin with IrisDuo and Halo beads, adding SuperDuo and 15/0 seed beads between each. Forming the Circle: Create a circular base using the IrisDuo and SuperDuo beads, ensuring to end with a seamless join. Adding the Rivoli: Incorporate the 14mm Potomac crystal rivoli, securing it with a beadweaving technique that ensures its centrality and prominence in the pendant. Finishing Touches: Complete the pendant with additional seed beads for decoration and structure, finishing with a bail for hanging. Final Reinforcement: Reinforce the entire structure by threading through the beads multiple times to ensure durability and stability.
