### What do you think?
Do you love suncatchers?

Did you try making something from this video? We'd love to see! Tag Tiff on Instagram! @margayandbinturong 👉 [ Ссылка ]

Was this too difficult or were you too scared to try by yourself? We make beginning Suncatcher DIY kits that are easy to assemble. They are a little easier to make than this video. You can also get an optional plier kit too, so you'd have all the tools and components to make something. Tiff demonstrates what to do in a video like this one. If you're interested. No pressure 😇

Were you like, "Pshaw I can make that. Too easy."? Pics or it didn't happen. 😜 If you have any recommendations or complaints, let us have it!!! We love to improve.


### Components Needed
#### Bicone or Helix Bead Flower
* 5x Bicones or Helix Beads or Ovals 6mm Center-drilled
* 1x Jump Ring 5.5mm or larger (larger is easier)
* 1x Bicone 5mm Center-drilled (for center bead)
* 12" Wire 26g (0.404 mm)
* +Tools: Wire cutters, Chain nose pliers. Round nose pliers can help but aren't needed.

#### Hydrangea (same as above except 4 "petals")
* Same tools and components, except 4 "petals" not five. Also, the "petals" were wrapped with drill hole flush (perpendicular) to the jump ring. This differs from the previous flower which angled the beads on their side and wrapped with a facet resting against the jump ring.
