Materials Used To make The  Project

Quick Project Steps

Start with four sides of your bead structure, forming almost a ring shape.
To add the tops and bottoms, making it a box, stitch Rizo beads across the sides, connecting them with 11/0 seed beads.
Ensure your needle and thread pass through the beads without catching on adjacent Rizo beads, keeping the structure tight.
Continue adding Rizo beads until you have four groupings of two on each side.
Sew through the beads to close up the structure, reinforcing it for stability.
Optional: Apply a small amount of glue to secure the final thread ends before cutting them off.
