Directions:
Step 1. Cut a desired length of Wire. We used approximately 10”.
Step 2. Twist the end of the Wire in any manner you like. We looped it around and around in a circular motion.
Step 3. Add the Bronzite Oval to the Wire.
Step 4. Take the other end of the Wire, at the top of the Bronzite Oval, and make a loop using Round Nose Pliers, then wrap the Wire around the bottom of the loop 2-3 times or as many times as desired. Trim the excess and set aside.
Step 5. Cut 2 lengths of Soft Flex, each about 20” long.
Step 6. String the ends of both strands of Soft Flex through a Crimp Bead, through the loop of one end of the Clasp, and back through the Crimp Bead. Crush the Crimp and trim the excess Soft Flex.
Step 7. Onto one of the strands, string the following:
1 Gold Seed Bead
1 Root Beer Seed Bead
1 Gold Seed Bead
2 Bugle Beads
Step 8. String the following:
1 Gold Seed Bead
1 Root Beer Seed Bead
1 Gold Seed Bead
3 Bugle Beads
Step 9. Repeat Step 8 ten times.
Step 10. Repeat Step 7 and end with 1 Gold Seed Bead, 1 Root Beer Seed Bead, and 1 Gold Seed Bead. Set this strand aside.
Step 11. Take your other strand of Soft Flex and string the following:
1 Bugle Bead
1 Gold Seed Bead
1 Root Beer Seed Bead
1 Gold Seed Bead
Step 12. Repeat the pattern from Step 11 until this strand is as long as the first.
Step 13. Take your 2 strands and string both through the loop that you created, with the Gold Wire, at the top of the Bronzite Oval.
Step 14. Repeat Step 6 with the other end of the Clasp. Enjoy!
