for this you will need:

take a wire and fold it in half

and twist 2-3 times
repeat for all 8 wires

Thank you. You should see it as I add the embellishments. I'm even a little amazed at how it's turning out.

Oh, that is so beautiful! I love how it turned out. Was it difficult to manage all of those wires?

Thank you.
All The wires were tricky at first. There's actually a step that I left out because i thought it would really confusing to explain. But I'll try.

So as you finish each twist pull the wires through to the other side so they are out of the way, and when you're finished with the row flip it over to start the next side.
