  2. Start wiring the crystal beads and pearl-style beads onto the frame, spacing them evenly to create an attractive cover.
  3. Suspend the crystal prism from the bottom center of the heart frame using another piece of wire.

Notes

Ensure any visible wire is trimmed neatly. Handle delicate beads and the prism with care to avoid breakage. Use a minimal amount of adhesive if needed to keep the piece looking clean and polished.
