Start a new length of 22-gauge copper wire and anchor it at the bottom frame as shown (fig. 4a, 4b).
Cut the excess wire from the anchor site with a wire cutter (fig. 4c).
Then, continue to weave the copper wire with a simple coil decoration on the silver wire frame (fig. 4d, 4e).
Cut the excess wire to finish up the design (fig. 4f).
Repeat the process on the other side with a similar decoration (fig. 4g, 4h, 4i, 4j).
Note: After cutting the wire, make sure it is close to frame and tugged at the back to avoid getting caught on surfaces.

Moving on, start a new length of 22-gauge copper and make a coil on the midpoint of the silver wire frame (fig. 5a).
Then, proceed to make the same coil on the other frames (fig. 5b, 5c).
End the design by making a last coil on the starting frame (Jump to fig. 8f).
