Begin by holding the 4 round 11 inch wires tightly and bending into a V shape.

Step 2:
Hold the V centered against the Ob. Ladder, (more towards the upper half) and bend the wires together around the sides. Using your half round wrap wire, wrap the wire in each bend. (ok to use round wire for wrapping here)

Step 3:
Separate 3 wires and sculpt an oval around the shoulder. Run the 4th wire through the bail hole. Repeat for the opposite shoulder.

Step 4:
Now take the 3 wire bundles and cross them in the back as an X just below the bail hole.

Step 5:
Take one of the bail hole wires and stitch it back over, under and around the X.

Step 6:
Repeat with the second wire, and flatten with your mallet.

Step 7:
Next, squeeze your bail wires together and wrap with half round or round wraps until the end, or 2.5 inches.Move around to the front and complete the body wrap, pushing the wire together tightly.Trim at a 45 degree angle and curl the wire tips evenly across the front.

Step 8:
Using the Coiling Gizmo wrap the 8 inch round GF wire in loose rolls approx. 1/4 inch apart. Using the Gizmo or the round pliers make 6 jump rings.

Step 9:
After installing a j. ring to each curl, bend a swing hoop on the end of the twirled dangle wire, and cut to suite just below the pendant. After making two the same length, glue an 8mm Mahogany Ob. bead to the lower end. Install both. Cut two smaller length "dangles" and glue a bead on their tips as well. Bend a swing hoop and hang on necklace (when built).

Step 10:
In this last part you will be constructing the necklace itself. Using the hh 26ga. beading wire we thread on the beads as shown, using the fancy beads right up front by the pearls. We also wrap a tiny piece between the pearls as a bail rider for support. Once the bail rider is wrapped, hang the bail over the necklace, placed between the pearls and then wrap the bail.

Step 11:
All that remains is to hang the short dangles and attach the curb chain.

Step 12:
As shown in the final photo, the long dangles were removed from the pendant and converted to earrings.
