Step-by-Step Instructions:
- Thread 4 beads onto your cord. String the cord through the D-ring of the Keyring & Clip, and add 3 more beads to the cord. Centre the beads and clip on your cord.
2. Thread your needle onto the cord with 4 beads. Insert the needle up through the last 2 beads on the other cord (the one with 3 beads). Pull tight to secure.
3. Slide the wooden bead onto the cord, and push it into the centre of the circle. Pull the cord down between the closest beads.
4. Use your threaded needle to insert it into the next bead, moving towards your other cord until they meet.
5. Tie a single knot and pull tight.
6. On one cord, place 3 beads. On the other cord, place 4 beads.
7. Thread your needle onto the cord with 4 beads. Insert the needle up through the last 2 beads on the cord with 3 beads. Pull tight!
8. Slide the wooden bead onto the cord. Push it into the centre of the circle. Pull the cord down between the closest beads.
9. Use your threaded needle to insert it into the next bead, moving towards your other cord until they meet.

11. Repeat steps 6-9 for your last flower section.
12. Tie a tight double knot.
13. Thread your needle through one of the beads beside the double knot and pull the knot inside the bead to hide it.
14. Trim your ends and lightly fuse the cord to prevent fraying.
