Step 2: Cut three 1ft pieces of Flex-Rite. Crimp each piece to a loop on the filigree piece, with one empty loop between each crimped loop. String onto the Flex-Rite pieces in a random pattern using the purple opal glass beads, the lucite matte grape heishi beads, the purple velvet crystal bicone beads, the light lavender lucite button round beads, and the lilac crystal givre flower button beads. When using the button rounds and the flower buttons string them on three at a time to create lush clusters.
Step 3: After stringing approximately six inches of beads feed all three strands through one lavender lucite tube. Crimp all three strands to a small lobster clasp. Attach the locket to a small jump ring and hook the jump ring to the Flex-Rite loop the attaches through the clasp. Attach the 8mm jump ring to the filigree piece across from where the middle beaded strand is crimped.The End!
