Natural pearl threads
0.4mm brass wire
20mm creoles
Pendants

This achievement is quite simple, do not try to be too regular, you will see that naturally the pearls will be placed on the edge. In this type of creation with ethnic inspirations it is the slightly irregular "handmade" aspect which gives all the charm and makes your achievement more lively.

To start, cut a brass wire of about 30cm. (Be careful not to take too little wire because no connection is possible, nor too long at the risk of tangling the wire.

Wrap one end of the wire around the hoop, making 3 tight turns. Then cut the excess wire flush.

Using flat pliers, flatten the edge of the previously cut wire towards the hoop to prevent it from snagging.

Start the bead work...

Thread a pearl, place it on the outer edge of the creole and then bring the thread back inside the creole. Your pearl will then lock naturally.

Bring the wire back out and then thread a bead again. Place it on the edge and then wrap the wire around the hoop.

Continue like this until you have placed 9 beads...

In the center, proceed as with the beads but this time with a pendant. Wrap the wire around the creole then continue in symmetry with the 9 remaining beads.

Finally, wrap the wire tightly 3 times around the edge of the last bead.

Cut the wire flush and then flatten it neatly.

And there you have it! Beautiful creation!
