Step1: Make 16 crystal dangles by putting one crystal on a head pin and turning a loop. Separate the crystal dangles into four groups of four. Put each grouping onto a 4mm open jump ring. Do this by opening the ring and feeding it through the head pin loops you created, close the jump ring.

Step 2: Cut four 6 inch pieces of 22ga gold plated wire. Bend each piece in half. Feed one of your crystal adorned jump rings onto the wire. Rest the jump ring in the center bend of the wire. Feed both ends of the wire down through the center of the Shamrock Flower and then down through the center of the Star Flower. Cross the ends of the wire in back of the flowers and pull tight. Set the stacked flowers on top of one bangle. Wrap each wire end around the bangle three or four times moving away from the center of the flower. Keep pulling your wire tight to get a snug fit.

Step 3: Attach the remaining flowers to the same bangle. One directly across from the first and then the other two across from each other. Wear bangles in a group by stacking two bangles on either side of the embellished bangle.

The End!
