To begin, cut a nylon thread approximately 20cm long.

Thread 5 natural stone beads onto the wire.

Here we're making flowers with 6mm beads. If you'd like to use 4mm beads (as in the red model), you'll start with 7 beads instead of 5.

Bring the ends of the thread together and thread a gold bead.

Now place the gold bead in the center of the other beads, with the 2 wires on either side of the central bead.

Pass the wires through the 2 beads, working your way down.

Pull the wire tight to hold the beads together.

Now thread a bead by crossing the wires.

Tighten the assembly.

Then pass one of the wires through all the beads and pull out the other wire.

Thread the thread protector over the wires, then crush the thread protector to lock the wires in place.

Trim any excess wires.

Finally, open the creole ring and thread the previous assembly.

Your jewel is finished!

Beautiful creation!
