BASIC TECHNIQUE 2

Use 30 cm craft wire.

 
 

 
With this 'string and turn'-technique, the beads are being stringed and the wire is wound together just under the beads.

Place 7 beads in the middle of the wire, bend the wire so that the last beads come together and wind the ends ½ cm. Place 7 beads on a wire end and wind a little stem of ½ cm. Both wire ends come together, and wind them ½ cm. Place 7 beads on the other wire end and repeat this sequence as described before until there are 6 loops.
