    Quick Project Steps

    Begin with 18mm Rivoli: Start with Hubble Stitch around the 18mm rivoli using 11/0 and 8/0 seed beads. Add Smaller Rivolis: Incorporate 14mm and 10mm rivolis, adjusting the count of Hubble Stitch units. Embellish with Seed Beads: Use 11/0 and 15/0 seed beads to add decorative details around the rivolis. Create Outer Edge: Embellish the outer edge of each rivoli section with crystals and additional seed beads for a sparkling effect. Connect Pendant Pieces: Use right angle weave to connect different pendant pieces. Choose a layout that suits your style (e.g., cascading or clustered). Finish with Bail: Add a bail to the pendant using Herringbone Stitch for hanging on a chain or cord. Final Touches: Tidy up any loose threads and ensure all beads are securely in place.
