  • Step-By-Step Instructions

    Gather all materials and prepare your bead mat.
    Start with the right angle weave using 8/0 Delicas, creating a base quickly due to their larger size.
    Add a stop bead to your thread to prevent beads from falling off.
    Begin weaving the first row of the right angle weave, paying attention to the larger holes of the Delicas.
    After completing the first row, proceed to add another row of RAW on top.
    Introduce embellishments using Potomac Crystal Bicones 3mm.
    Attach the clasp to one end of the bracelet.
    Add thread as needed to continue your work.
    Complete the second row of crystal embellishments and attach the clasp to the opposite side.
    Optionally, add a row of seed beads for additional decoration.
    Tie off the thread ends securely.
    Add a Rivoli to the clasp for a final touch.
