This ring is fun and easy to make, and it will become your favorite go to ring in no time. It is also a great memory wire beginner’s project.

When I first saw this charm, I thought this little guy was a firefly. Either way, he is still super cute. One word of warning: if you are going to be doing a lot of clapping, I suggest taking the ring off first. I had a bruise on my knuckle. OUCH!

You Will Need (4 things)

  • 1 Ring sized Memory Wire three to four rounds
  • Swarovski
  • Any color preference Glass Seed Beads
  • 1 Swarovski Bumble Bee Charm Sunshine

Steps (3 steps, 45 minutes)

  1. 1

    Separate three to four rounds of memory wire and cut in line with the end of the wire. Using the smallest part of the Memory Wire Finishing Pliers, form a loop at one of the ends of the memory wire. I HIGHLY recommend using the Memory Wire Finishing Pliers over regular Round Nose Pliers.

  2. 2

    Bead your wire in any pattern or solid color of your choice. I used TOHO Galvanized Silver, Starlight Galvanized Gold and Hematite for my Bee ring. Bead up until you have about a 1/4 of an inch of wire left and form your end loop the same as you did your beginning loop.

  3. 3

    Attach your charm with the clip onto either one or both of the loops. If you want a more adjustable ring, clip the charm on only one of the loops.
