STEP ONE
Pendant Using beading wire attach it to pendant at the back by twisting two ends together, feed wire through to the front and add bugle beads and pearls until wire reaches to the next hole. Design note: Make sure when you feed wire to the back of the pendant you are twisting wire around to secure it before pushing it to the front of the pendant. You can do this in a random pattern or branches as in pictures.
