Retired - Blue Valentine Bracelet

1. Using the memory wire cutters, cut a piece of memory wire that is seven loops long.
2. Begin at one end of the memory wire and using your wire looping pliers, make a loop so that the wire curls in towards the remaining wire.
3. Using the other end of the memory wire begin to pick up the beads in the order you wish. With this bracelet there is no specific pattern. By looking at the photo you can see that I threaded several seed beads and then alternated crystals. One thing to keep in mind is where you place the hearts. You have four hearts and I tried to place mine on opposite sides of the memory wire so they won't all clump together.
4. Once you have added all of the beads, you will finish off the memory wire by using your wire looping pliers make a loop so that the wire curls in towards the remaining wire.
