• Slide a teardrop crystal onto a 12” (or shorter) piece of 18 gauge artistic silver wire.
• Twist a small curl in the end with needle nose pliers.
• Slide a rondelle or round crystal bead onto the wire, kinking the wire a little so that the beads line up.
• Continue with different kinds of beads until you get the look you want.
• Remember every icicle is different!
• Bend and curl the wire at top as shown and trim any excess wire.
• Add a metallic bow if desired.
• Frosted beads and colorful beads also make pretty icicles. Make long ones and shorter ones.
• Hang in a sunny window or near lights on a Christmas tree to watch the love glisten through!
