If you wanted to add a rivoli make the triangle the size of the rivoli...so it will sit snuggly when you start the decreasing. I'd probably add it after two rounds of decreasing.
I really like this design, but my triangle came out rather flat, not puffy. I tried to keep my tension tight, but maybe not tight enough? Also, I didn't have any drop beads, so I used 3mm pearls at the corners; could that be the problem? Thanks.
Oh Mikki, thank you so much for this tut. I have it in a book, but I don't learn well that way. I do much better hands on watching the videos. I got to the start of the round where you add a 'drop' bead.......and I was stuck. My only problem with this video is that you didn't provide a materials list at the first. I'm not sure just what this bead is or if I even have any, so have to do some research. But other wise, I love this video/tutorial!!!
thank you for your tutorials i am learning beading and found you video easy to follow your slow enough i dont have to guess where your adding beads etc perfect thank you :)
I didn't list the beads as I thought they spoke for themselves. Delicas and drop beads. I used 11/0 Delica and 3.4mm drop. But this works with any size bead, cylinder or rocaille. You can Google for beads you don't know...lots of info out there.
