Holly & Stars Christmas Decorations
Ingredients
Selection of Swarovski Crystals in your choice of colour (for the "Holly" decoration we used 13 8mm Swarovski Bicones in Emerald and 14 4mm Swarovski Bicones in Ruby, For the Stars decoration we used 17 Swarovski Crystal Star beads and 18 4mm Swarovski Crystal Bicones in Siam)
Tools Required: Memory Wire Shears, Round Nose Pliers, Chain Nose Pliers
Method
1. Using your Memory Wire Shears cut 2 turns of Child Sized Memory Wire and make a loop at one end using your round nose pliers
2. Thread on the beads in your choice of colours and pattern until you have completed a full circle.
3. Use your Round Nose Pliers to create another loop at the other end of the Memory Wire and snip off any excess wire using your Memory Wire Shears – neaten the loop if necessary using your Chain Nose Pliers
4. Finally cover up the loops at the top of the decoration with a bow made from organza ribbon – voila!
