Turn a petal bead cap into a blooming flower with just a few quick steps.
You'll need: a bead cap, a 6mm round bead, a 3mm bead and a 1" headpin.
Tools: bench block, hammer, round nose pliers, wire cutters.
Step 1. Push the 6mm bead into the bead cap to spread out the petals a little. Remove the bead.
Step 2. Place petal side down on a bench block, hammer gently to spread out the petals more.
Step 3. Attach the 3mm bead to the center of the bead cap with a headpin. Trim wire and form a loop.
Necklace featuring a Jade Scott pendant and lime branch disk beads from Humblebeads.

That's a great idea Heather. The flowers look fantastic! What a simple way to add a little whimsy in a metal that works with the rest of the piece. Very clever!
