Instructions
Step 1
Cut two 10-inch lengths of Accu-Flex® Professional Quality beading wire.
Step 2
String one crimp onto one length of beading wire. Pass the beading wire around the bar inside of one glue-in end cap of one half of the clasp and back through the crimp. Pull the beading wire so the crimp rests snug against the end cap leaving approximately 1/4 inch of beading wire on the end. Crimp then trim the excess from the short end of the beading wire. Finish with a crimp cover.
Repeat with the second length of beading wire.

String onto one length of beading wire:
- One fuchsia 3mm bicone
- One 6mm stardust round

- One 8mm stardust round
- One 8x3.5mm rondelle
- One 10mm stardust round
- One 8x3.5mm rondelle
- One 8mm stardust round

Separate the lengths of beading wire. String onto one length:
- One Capri blue 3mm bicone
- One 6mm stardust round
- One 6x3.5mm rondelle
- One 6mm stardust round
- One Capri blue 3mm bicone
Repeat this pattern on the second length of beading wire.
