4. Go back through 4 of the bicones with one wire and pull the loop into a circle.

5. Make sure the circle of crystals � ts into the channel of the Katiedid. Snip the ends of the wire.

6. Add a drop of Bead� x Gel Adhesive in the channel of the Katiedid opposite the headpin and press the crystal circle into the channel. Wait for the glue to dry.

7. Repeat steps 3-6 in the outer channel using 38 crystals.

8. Use the E6000 to glue the Rivoli to the center of the Katie-did and to glue the component to the ring blank.

9. Allow 24 hours to dry.
