I have been looking in different bead shops on-line and seeing these beautiful buttons and rivolis with holes.  I know they can be used as clasps to bracelet, but I do not know how to figure it out.  Can someone please help me and direct me on how to close bracelets with buttons or other beads and how to do it?  Also how many seed beads to use on the other side to fit the button or rivoli or another bead.

I am in the process of making my Christmas jewelry presents and would love to do it this way!

This is just a process of trial and error.  I start with what I think will fit, and then adjust up or down as needed.
