This beaded princess ring, Using crystals and Seed beads is designed to lift the crystals front and center. The detail under the crystals is not only pretty but also add strength. I designed this ring in such a way to minimize visible thread and the amount of thread passes thru a single size 15 seed bead. If you are advanced in RAW techniques you can absolutely make the cage around the crystals with raw, but I feel that it adds thread bulk… I hope you and your friends enjoy making and wearing these Princess band rings! As always I hope you have a beautiful day. Supplies: BEADS Size 15 # 961 Miyuki (bright sterling silver) Size 11 # 961 Miyuki (bright sterling silver) 4mm cube crystals … if interested I used Swarovski 4mm cube crystals - Emerald Swarovski 4mm cube crystals - Violet Opal NEEDLES Beadsmith beading needle …..size 13 in video I made the emerald ring with a size 12 (the 13 was easier to work with but the 12 was ok too) STRING crystal- I highly recommend this choice, it’s strong enough but also thin enough. I don’t think Wildfire would work. 0:00 princess ring intro 0:23 beading supplies 0:46 ladder stitch with cube beads 2:02 adding seed beads 19:16 starting the band 21:42 Sizing guide 25:45 ending thread CONTACT thelittlebeadingcloset@ Mailing address: The Little Beading Closet PO Box 887 Pawleys Island, SC 29585
