You will need:

  •  Wooden Beads
  •  Craft Wire
  •  Pliers or Scissors

Instructions:

1. Start by creating a long straight body. Bend a 40cm length of wire in
half. Use the pliers to curl up a 1cm section near the bend to create the
tip of the tail. From the other end, slide nine 6mm beads onto the
doubled wire. Next, add two 8mm beads followed by one 12mm bead.

2. Make the wings by threading eighty 6mm beads onto a 50cm length of
wire. Bend the tips to keep the beads from sliding off. Shape the upper
two thirds of the strand into a figure 8 for the top set of wings; then
shape the lower third into a smaller set of wings.

3. Set the body on top of the wings and attach the two by wrapping the
trailing wire ends of the wings around the body wire between the 8mm
beads.
