3 feet 24 or 22 gauge wire (plated or silver)

1 yard of cording (silk, satin, or leather)

. Spider leg diagram. make 4 of these; each one is 2 legs.

4.  Wire wrap or one loop roll over at the end of your bead section.  You now have 2 legs.

5. Repeat this to make all 4 leg sections.  Each section is 2 legs.

6.  Slide the 10mm round onto the head pin followed by the leg sections.  String the center loop on each leg section onto the headpin.  Then add the 8mm round.  Situate the legs so that they "interlock" with each other.

7.   Wire wrap the top of the head pin, getting the wrap nice and tight so that the legs can't spin around.

8.  Bend the legs to get them into an position that you like.
