STEP FIVE
Cut off the excess wire leaving approx.
2cm. Thread on 1 x crimp, chain, thread
the Beadalon wire back through the crimp,
keeping the wires parallel, before squashing
the crimp. Hold the excess wire and direct
the wire back through the beads, making
the loop the same as the first loop.
STEP SIX
Open the split ring, slip the chain in between
the split rings, and add the swivel clip.
HANDBAG DANGLE
STEP ONE
Lay out your pattern as in the photograph.
Take off the jump ring at the end of the
keyring by using 2 x chain nose pliers,
twisting it open. This will ensure that the
Beadalon cannot slip through.
STEP TWO
Thread 1 x crimp onto the end of the
Beadalon, followed by the crystal sphere and
back through the crimp allowing approx.
1.5cm of excess wire, making sure the wires
are parallel. Squash the crimp pliers.
STEP THREE
This step must be followed precisely: hold
the bell cap horizontal, with the loop visible
to the eye, study the bell cap before you cut
the small loop off because if you cut it the
wrong way, this could cause it to collapse.
Cut the open section of the loop off to
allow the Beadalon to be threaded through.
STEP FOUR
Thread on pattern, making sure the excess
wire goes through the beads.
STEP FIVE
Cut off the excess wire approx. 2cm.
Thread 1 x crimp, add the keyring and
thread the Beadalon wire back through the
crimp, keeping the wires parallel, before
squashing the crimp. Hold the excess wire
and direct the wire back through the beads
making the loop smaller.
STEP SIX
Squash crimp with pliers.
