Well, this doesn't look very pretty right now, so, let's add some flair. Add the bigger LED first, twisting the wire around the ring. Flux it up, solder, snip the wires, and repeat for the smaller ones.

After that, whip out your sandpapering device of choice and make everything nice and smooth. Voila! You're very own, DIY, resistor ring!

Lead can be absorbed by the skin, and it is very poisonious.......
