    Part2: To the rest part, add 12/0 Glass Seed Bead*1 onto each wire tip and cross two tips through another 12/0 Glass Seed Bead again;

    Part3: to connect the starting part and ending part, in the 37th loop, string 12/0 Glass Seed Bead*1 onto the below wire tip; then feed the other tip through the starting 12/0 Glass Seed Bead; at last, cross the two tips from one more 12/0 Glass Seed Bead. Here the 1st layer of your necklace is finished!

    Attention: as the picture shows, the whole skeleton of the heart pendant necklace can be divided into 37 connected beads loops; here, in this project, in the loop 22,29,30,32,34, you need to string 12/0 Glass Seed Bead*2 onto each wire tip!

    Attention1: in the 37th loop, string 8/0 Glass Seed Bead*1 and 12/0 Glass Seed Bead*1 onto the above wire tip; then lead the below tip from the adjoining 12/0 Glass Seed Bead in the first layer; finally, cross both tips through another 12/0 Glass Seed Bead.

    Attention2: in the loop 1~7, you just need to add 12/0 Glass Seed Bead*1 onto each wire tip; but between the loop 3 and 4, when lead the below tip from the adjoining 12/0 Glass Seed Bead, you need to weave the wire through two 12/0 Glass Seed Beads in them at same time. This is the concave portion in the heart pendant necklace.

    Attention3: in the loop 8~13, replace the last bead with 8/0 Glass Seed Bead. Furthermore, the number of added 12/0 Glass Seed Bead should add to 2 pieces except in loop 12 (remain add on one 12/0 Glass Seed Bead).
