Bezelled squares

Instructions

Instructions for how to bezel swarovski rivolis, and toggle and square loops came from a Laura McCabe book. The idea to combine open squares and bezelled rivolis was my own.

Difficulty:

Category: Jewelry

Type of item: Accessory

For: Women


Materials

Vintage swarovski squares, delicas, 15/o sead beads, 15/o charlottes, rondelles, nymo

What was your inspiration?

The main inspiration was the swarovski squares and my current passion for bezelling. I saw a spiral staircase bracelet tht my local bead shop where using in a display that used silver, aqua and teal as a colourway, and fell in love with the combination. When I was looking through my stash for beads to start this project, it all just fell into place!

What are you most proud of?

I never know what to put in this section, as I'm just proud of the finished item!

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Don't be frightened to try bezelling, it is easier than it looks! If you can peyote you can bezel!
