How to Make:

Bracelet:

In the video below, we show you exactly how to do this technique.

Earings:

You actually use the same technique as with the bracelet. Only in this case you make only 1 string instead of 2 as with the bracelet. When you have made the string with the half flowers, bend it around and close the earring with the copper wire and turn a ring on it. Attach an earring hook, and your earring is complete. 

Ring:

You start with a piece of 0.4mm copper wire around 20cm long. you thread a large Miyuki bead onto it and slide it to the middle. Then, on both sides of the large Miyuki bead, you thread 3 small Miyuki beads. Bend the copper wire and then thread through a large Miyuki bead with both ends of the copper wire in opposite directions. Pull this tight to create a circle. Repeat this step until it is large enough, and then round and secure it together. Cut the copper wire pieces neatly and your ring is ready.
