    Quick Project Steps

    You’ll love all the colors in this cute summertime Morning Glory necklace. The crystals give just the right amount of sparkle to your outfit. Practice up your wire working skills with Allie in this PotomacBeads tutorial. 1. Put a flower bead onto about 2 feet of 20ga wire, leaving about an inch tail. Bend the tail around the bead and twist it twice around the longer wire and trim the edge. Flatten out with pliers so it doesn’t catch. Add a Potomac crystal bicone. Put on another flower bead and bend the flower down, bend the wire around the flower and wrap it around twice going towards the crystal. Take a new piece of wire and go through the same flower bead and wrap as before. Continue the pattern. 2. Watch the Morning Glory necklace tutorial to learn tips and tricks used to create this wire necklace. 3. Add a double loop to the end of the flower chain so it’s sitting next to the last crystal. On the other end of the chain, add a 4 inch piece of wire through the last flower bead and wrap as before. Drop on the last bead and bend the wire down upon itself and pinch down. Form into a hook. This fun Morning Glory necklace would make a great gift for a friend. Have fun experimenting with different beads and crystals to make a one of a kind treasure Technique learned:
