| Begin this jewelry making project by following steps 1
through 5 on our Beginner's Instructions
Page 35 with a piece of 18 or 20
gauge wire 4 inches long and a second piece of 20 gauge wire 2 1/2 inches
long. These are our generic project instructions for cutting,
straightening and making a loop in the end of your wire. The 4 inch
long wire segment is for the V shaped wire component. The 2 1/2 inch
long segment is for the bar at the top of the V that helps retain the
shape of the V shaped component. |

| Step 6: After positioning pegs 1 and 2, make a loop
around peg 2 with the 4 inch segment of wire.
Step 7: Then add pegs 5, 4 and 3, removing peg 1 and 2. Now place the initial loop on peg 5 and the second loop on peg 4 and make a loop around peg 3 as shown at right. (By flipping the wire over like this, the end component will be flatter.) Step 8: Add Peg 2 and make a loop around this peg. |
