To make your decoration:
This project is suitable for beginners, however some experience of making loops in wire would be an advantage.
Tools required: Round nose pliers
Materials needed:
Snowflake frame
Beads of your choosing
Instructions
Step one: Choose the pattern that you would like on your snowflake. You can make each prong the same or each one different, it can be unique to you. Start adding on the beads. Top Tip: always start with a small 3mm bead as anything bigger will push up against the adjacent beads on the neighbouring prongs and will push the beads on those pongs towards the end of the prong.
Step two: Once you get to approximately 1cm from the end of the prong use the round nose pliers to put a loop in the end.
Step three: Repeat on the other six prongs.
Step four: If you want the snowflake to hang, add some thread through one of the loops at the end of a prong.
