8. To make the vine use the twisty silver to form a small loop around round nose pliers at one end. About 3/4 inch from this endpoint, make a slightly larger loop. This is where the flower will rest. Leave 2 inches and make another small loop (figure G).

9. Attach the flower to the vine at the large loop on the silver wire with a crystal headpin (figure H).

10. Start the leafy vine by slipping one leaf onto the silver wire. Place a leaf bead about 2 inches from the end and fold the wire so that it is doubled up. Then twist, using flat head pliers to keep both strands of silver anchored (figure I).

11. Secure the vine onto the twisty wire behind the flower.
