  • How to make a beaded band ring. Elastic Sparkly Ring - Step 1

    Take the chaton montee (which is a sparkly stone in a metal setting with holes on the back) and turn it upside down so the metal setting is face up. This makes it easier to thread. Thread one end of the elastic through the top two holes right to left and the other end through the bottom two holes left to right.
