  Step 1

  Take the brooch back and the length of wire and secure the wire to the
  hole in the centre of the brooch back. Thread the wire to come up through
  one of the end holes.

• 

  Step 2

  Thread on the 12mm faceted glass bead and thread the wire though the
  opposite end hole , wrap it around the base a few times to secure.

• 

  Step 3

  Hold the 24mm ring on top of the brooch back and secure it at one side
  by wrapping the wire round a few times.

• 

  Step 4

  Bring the wire up about 3cm from the ring and thread on a bead, take the
  wire back down to the ring and holding it in place with your thumb, twist
  the bead so the wire holds it at the top securely. Thread the wire through
  the ring to come back beside the first strand to repeat.

• 

  Step 5

  Work half way round the ring repeating step 4 with a mixture of beads.

• 

  Step 6

  When you get half way round, attach the other end of the brooch pin to
  the ring as in step 3.

• 

  Step 7

  Continue to work the brooch right round to the start. You can add a few
  to the brooch middle, beside the big bead, too if you like.

• 

  Step 8

  Wrap the wire round the base a couple of times to secure, and cut off the
  excess.

• 

  Step 9

  Take a thin knitting needle or the middle of a biro pen and wind each
  strand around until it is a curly twisty shape. Pull out the needle. Repeat
  with all the strands.

  Step 10

  Wear and enjoy !
