These whimsical little apple ornaments are adorable. I used the plastic filigree wheels as a base and built these lovely apples in red and green. Great for the holiday season or a favorite teacher.

Step 1: Cut six 10" pieces of wire. Turn a small loop at the end of the wire. Feed the wire through one of the tiny holes next to the center hole in the lucite filigree piece. String eight 5mm glass beads on the wire and feed the wire down through the the tiny hole on the edge of the filigree.

Step 2: String fifteen more 5mm glass beads into the wire. String five large holed glass beads on the wire and feed the wire up through the center hole of the filigree piece.

Step 3: Repeat steps one and two five more times. Feed all the wires through the same large holed beads and through the center hole.

Step 4: Feed four of the wires through six seed beads and turn a loop. Curl each of the remaining wires around a pen to create a curly accent. Feed a 4mm crystal onto each curl and bend the wire back on itself to hold the crystal in place on the end of the wire.

The End!
