Add on mini sparkling beads of gold and pearl with a new 26 gauge copper wire (fig. 5a, 5b).
Firstly, slip the 26 gauge copper wire through the 18 gauge small loop at the midpoint of the inner crescent (fig. 5c, 5d).
Then, make two coils on the small loop frame:
- First coil (fig. 5e, 5f, 5g, 5h).
- Second coil (fig. 5i, 5j).

Anchor the wire onto the inner crescent frame (fig. 6g, 6h, 6i, 6j).
