Quick Project Steps

Prepare Your Materials: Gather all beads, the filigree donut, beading thread, and needle.
Start the Thread: Tie your thread to the filigree donut, using one of its small holes.
Adding Beads: Begin sewing beads onto the donut, alternating between sizes and colors as desired, ensuring each bead is secured with a 15/0 seed bead.
Adding the Bail: Incorporate the bail at the top of your wreath for wearing as a pendant.
Focus on Design: Concentrate flower cups and berry-like melon beads at the bottom for a traditional wreath look.
Final Touches: Once all beads are added, tie off and cut the thread. Consider adding a bow or other decorations for additional flair.
