Basics STRINGING | Twist end of WireLace® and add G-S Hypo Cement on the tip. Trim at an angle and string through beads. |
| Hold 4mm crystals in place on 1mm WireLace® by applying G-S Hypo Cement and sliding 4mm crystals over glue. |
| String beads on wire inside WireLace® or wrap between chain and secure with an overhand knot. |
SUPPORTING To keep the lacy waves from stretching out or to string beads inside WireLace® tube, use a large metal yarn needle available at most crafts stores. Insert a wire into the WireLace™ tube to create shapes and armatures. FINISHING When finishing WireLace you have several options. You can wrap the ends with wire and insert into a clamshell endcap, or tie off WireLace® on a eye-pin and insert into a cone end, or you can choose to use a bead to finish the end. Bell endcaps make an elegant ending. Simply epoxy onto the end. You can also use an overhand knot on a jump ring to connect to a clasp, and you can also use polymer clay to bake endcaps or beads directly onto WireLace.
