  1. Begin by cutting Four 12 inch pieces of wire.
  2. Take one piece of wire and place a bead stopper about 2 inches from one end. Thread on one crimp tube, followed by 15 pearls, 6 hearts, 5 pearls and one crimp tube. Set aside.
  3. Take a second piece of wire and place a bead stopper about 2 inches from one end. Thread on one crimp tube, followed by 12 pearls, 6 hearts, 7 pearls and one crimp tube. Set aside.
  4. Take a third piece of wire and place a bead stopper about 2 inches from one end. Thread on one crimp tube, followed by 8 pearls, 6 hearts, 12 pearls and one crimp tube. Set aside.
  5. Take the final piece of wire and place a bead stopper about 2 inches from one end. Thread on one crimp tube, followed by 5 pearls, 6 hearts, 15 pearls and one crimp tube. Set aside.
  6. Pick up the first strand you strung and taking one side of the clasp thread the wire through the top hole and back through the crimp tube. Crimp the crimp tube. Take a crimp bead cover and cover the crimp tube. Go to the other side of the wire, remove the bead stopper and repeat this process as you did on the other side.
