Mood beads are definitely a throwback to the 70's and are so fun to wear! I love how they start black and as you wear them they turn into meaningful moody colors.
You will need 22 gauge wire, I used about 2 feet and a 8x9mm rondelle mood bead. I listed other options in the product list. You will also need a ring tool or I used a highlighter marker to size my ring. I used stainless steel wire, if you use this you may want to file your ends down. Stainless wire is very sharp when cut.
Cut a 2ft piece of wire, and feed it through the bead.
Once throught the bead, push opposite ends through the bead again.
Now place your ring sizer or marker through the loop and pull tight.
Take one side of the wire and go over the top, and the other wire around the bottom of the bead.
Keep wrapping the wire around the bead until you like how it looks.
Then take your ends and start to wrap around the wire that goes into the ring on each side. Make it tight, use pliers if you need to.
Just make sure to file or tuck in any sharp wire ends. Just adjust the wire to make it tight and neat, finished!
