1. Begin by cutting a piece of memory wire, 2 1/2 loops. Using your round nose pliers, make a simple wire loop, bending inwards, on one end of the wire. Set aside. Repeat this step once more, so that you have two pieces of wire.
2. To each wire string on one gold seed bead. Then string on one bronze two hole cabochon bead on to both wires. String on one gold seed bead to each wire, then string on one teal two hole cabochon bead on to both wires. Repeat this pattern 22 times and end with a teal cabochon and gold seed beads.
3. Make a simple wire loop at the end of each wire. Note: you may need to clip the wire a tiny bit. Make sure to leave 1/4" to make your loop.
