1. Cut two 6" lengths of each color wire. Hold them together and pass through a #3 crimp bead. Pass back through the crimp bead to make a ½" loop. Crimp it.
2. Pass the wires through the Murano glass bead and a #3 crimp bead (don't crimp it yet).
3. Cut two additional 4" wires of each color. Place the wire ends inside the crimp bead below the Murano glass bead with the tails extending downward. Crimp it.
4. String a 4mm indicolite bicone onto a gold wire and attach a #0 crimp below it. Attach more of the same style beads to the wire evenly spaced as shown; repeat for the other gold wires. Repeat using pacific opal rounds for the silver wires and crystal copper rounds for copper wires.
5. Pass the pendant onto the center of the memory wire.
6. String beads as follows onto one side of the pendant: teardrop, #3 gold crimp (don't crimp it), crystal copper, crimp (don't crimp it), cube; repeat for the other side of the pendant.
7. Cut the rubber tubing ¼" shorter than each side of the necklace, slide it onto the memory wire ends, and make a basic loop at each end of the necklace.
