Quick Project Steps

Prepare Your Materials: Gather all beads, thread, needle, and clasp as listed in the materials section.
Start the Right Angle Weave (RAW): Using .006 wildfire beading thread and a size 10 needle, begin the RAW stitch by creating a base with groups of four 11/0 seed beads.
Add Gemstones: Incorporate the 6mm opalite beads into the RAW base, securing each with 15/0 seed beads on either side.
Adjust Bracelet Size: Ensure the RAW base wraps comfortably around your wrist, adjusting the number of RAW units as necessary.
Attach the Clasp: Secure the Potomax Rivoli Bezel Clasp to the ends of the bracelet, reinforcing the attachment with additional passes through the beads and clasp.
Embellish: Add 2mm labradorite beads along the edges for a finished look, and consider additional embellishments as desired.

They make it easy to order, have comparable prices, and many choices including beads not found in other stores. Also love the designs and the fact there is a pattern for each.

Products are easy to find on the website. Large selection of beads and good sales. I have had some log in issues. I have also had issues with bead quality. Some aren’t drilled all the way and the color flaked off of lined beads.
