Materials Used To make The  Project

Quick Project Steps

Gather your materials: 30 Potomac Crystal Rondelles, 30 O Beads, and approximately 1 gram of Miyuki 15/0 seed beads.
Thread your needle with a comfortable length of beading thread.
Start by threading 30 crystal rondelles, arranging them in a circle using a right-angle weave technique.
Secure the initial structure by weaving through the beads to reinforce the circle.
Begin adding O Beads between each crystal rondelle, secured in place with 15/0 seed beads.
Continue weaving, adding more O Beads and 15/0 seed beads to fill out the ball and achieve the vintage look.
Finish the beaded ball by tying off and trimming excess thread, then adding a loop or clasp for hanging.
