Parts:
18" of approximately 20 gauge wire (such as #47-038 or #47-048)
28" of Cable Chain (such as #40-099-16-4 (by the spool) or #40-090-16 (by the foot))
Four Medium Tri-Bails (#37-036)
Four Rainbow Crystals of your choice (all 4 must be the same so their weight will balance).
A Hook Clasp (such as #39-293)
10 Large Jump Rings
Tools:
Round Nose Pliers
Wire Cutters

1. Cut wire and chain pieces.
1. Cut the wire into three 6" pieces.



2. Cut two 8-link pieces of chain (approximately 1"). Be sure these two pieces have an even number of links.
3. Cut four 1.5" pieces of chain.
4. The remaining 18-20" piece of chain is for hanging the mobile.
Note: Illustrations below this point are shown 50% actual size.

2. Form the bottom wire arc:
1. Using a pair of round nose pliers, approximately 8mm from the top of the pliers, grasp the center of one 6" piece of wire. The wire should be "smiling" at you.
2. Hold firmly, and with one finger on each side, push wire around pliers until a loop forms. Loop sould be on the top of the wire with each end facing down. (It should now be frowning.)
3. Grasp one end of the wire approximately 6mm from the top of the pliers and form a loop. Roll around pliers so that loop is on the bottom.
4. Repeat step d on other end of wire arc.

3. Apply steps 2a through 2d to the second 6" piece of wire, but instead of making the top loop in the middle, make it about 1/3 of the way from one edge. This will be the middle arc.
4. Apply steps 2a through 2d to the second 6" piece of wire, but instead of making the top loop in the middle, make it about 1/4 of the way from one edge. This will be the top arc.
5. Put the pieces together:
1. Using a tri-bail, attach a crystal to one end of a 1.5" piece of chain. Close tri-bail carefully (using fingers, not pliers) to avoid chipping crystals. Repeat with the other crystals and 1.5" pieces of chain.

2. Using a large jump ring, attach the other end of one of the 1.5" pieces of chain to a bottom loop of the bottom arc.
   ** Note: See Jump Ring Hint at end. **
3. Using another large jump ring, attach the next 1.5" piece of chain to the other bottom loop of this arc.
4. Use a jump ring to attach an 8-link piece of chain to the top of this arc.
5. Use a jump ring to attach the top end of this 8-link chain to the bottom loop on the shorter side of the middle (1/3) arc.
6. Use a jump ring to attach a 1.5" piece of chain (with a crystal at the bottom) to the other end of this middle arc.
7. Use a jump ring to attach the top end of this arc to an 8-link piece of chain.
8. Use a jump ring to attach the top end of this 8-link chain to the bottom loop on the shorter side of the top (1/4) arc.
9. Use a jump ring to attach a 1.5" piece of chain (with a crystal at the bottom) to the other end of this top arc.
10. Use a jump ring to attach one end of the long (18 - 20") chain to the top loop of the top arc.
11. Use the last jump ring to attach the hook clasp to the far end of the long chain.
6. Hang in a sunny spot!

• Embellish the hanging chain with beads or 2-hole crystals.
