Red Bead Sections

1. Start by using round-nosed pliers and some sterling wire and make an unwrapped loop on the end of the wire. Add on one red square crystal bead, and make another unwrapped loop on the other side of the wire. Trim off excess wire. Repeat this to make a second red crystal section.

At this stage, don't worry about making sure all the loops are closed on your bead sections. You'll find out why soon.
