end along the diagonal. After that, turn down the
other end so that you’ll get an overlapping cross

through them twice to secure in place.
1. String the 1st pearl and slide down to the
base;
2. Take either of the ribbon ends and sew it
to cover the bead;
3. Add on the 2nd pearl and cover with the
other ribbon end;
4. Keep threading pearls onto the wire and
cover them alternating with the two ribbon
ends;
5. When you have reached the desired length, take the needle and thread back through the beaded
part one more time.
6. Once you have finished the above process, anchor the wire and trim off the excess tail;
