Let this bow shine bright on your tree or brighten up a gift. This would even be cute to hang on a wine bottle.

Supplies you’ll need:

  • 2 strands of Czech glass faceted rice in ab crystal
  • 24 gauge wire
  • 8mm faceted silver rounds
  • Linhasita cord metallic silver

Step-by-Step Instructions:

Step 1

Cut 2' of wire. String on one faceted silver round and 9 teardrops on either side.

Step 2

Take the right wire end and bring it up and over, slide it through the center silver bead.

Step 3

Take the left wire end and bring it up and over, slide it through the center silver bead.

Step 4

Pull the wire ends tight to create a bow. Slide 6 Czech teardrops onto one tail and a faceted silver bead onto the bottom. Bring the wire up the back of the silver bead and wrap it around the top of the silver bead twice. Trim any excess wire. Do the same on the other wire tail.

Step 5

I used a needle to slide the silver cord through the middle silver bead for hanging.
