Quick Project Steps

Prepare the Base: Attach a stop bead to your thread. Start with a pattern of a 15/0 seed bead, two 11/0 seed beads, another 15/0, and a 3mm round bead. Repeat to form the base of the cluster.
Form the Cluster: Use the netting technique to add rounds and seed beads, creating the decorative cluster top of the ring.
Construct the Band: Transition to ladder stitch to create a two-bead-wide comfortable and stylish band.
Complete the Design: Secure the ends with knots, hiding them within the beadwork for a clean finish.
