I have been doing so much beading recently with crystals and last night I had the urge to do some more experimenting with rivolis.

I wanted to bezel them but in a different way- which I did- and this led on to me seeing if I could make a double-sided pendant. 

This followed-on from an experiment I did yesterday with some of my new crystal beading where I wanted to make an earring but was concerned about the back showing.... some fancy beading later and I had managed to bead it backwards and it worked- I was so pleased!

The experiment with the rivolis was mostly a success- I just need to refine some details until I'm happy with it- but I do like the idea of double-sided and getting more out of your beadwork!
