Instructions
Cut two 8-1/2 inch lengths of Accu-Flex® professional-quality beading wire.
String onto one of the lengths of beading wire: one crimp and one length of French wire. Pass the beading wire back through the crimp. Pull the beading wire so the crimp rests snug against the French wire leaving approximately 1/4 inch of beading wire on the end.
Crimp, then trim the excess from the short end of the beading wire. Finish with a 4mm crimp cover.
String one emerald green 6mm round and one 4x2mm smooth heishi onto the beading wire. Repeat this sequence to string 18 sets.
Continue to string one emerald green 6mm round.
Repeat Step 2 to secure the strand.
Repeat Step 2 using the remaining length of beading wire.
String the following onto the beading wire:
-One 4x2mm smooth heishi
-Three yellow 4mm rounds
Repeat Step 2 to secure the strand.
String one garnet red 6mm round onto one 1-inch eyepin then form a simple loop on the straight end of the wire.
Repeat to create a total of 10 garnet red links.
Using 7x5mm oval jumprings connect the 10 garnet red links creating a chain.
Tip: The first and last garnet red links will have one simple loop that is not connected to the 7x5mm oval jumprings.
Pass one 5mm jumpring through the top hole on one portion of the end bar lobster claw clasp and the loop on one end of the first strand then close.
Using one 5mm jumpring, connect the top hole of the other portion of the end bar lobster claw clasp and the loop on the opposite end of the first strand.
Repeat to connect the second strand to the middle holes of the end bar lobster claw clasp.
Using one 5mm jumpring, connect the bottom hole of the end bar lobster claw clasp and the open simple loop on one end of the garnet red chain. Repeat to connect the bottom hole of the other portion of the end bar lobster claw clasp and the open simple loop on the opposite end of the garnet red chain.
Attach one 18x14mm double-sided Christmas Tree to the 13th link on the extender chain using one 5mm jumpring.
