  1. Enlarge pattern 200% to fit diamond shape; place pattern under diamond and trace with silver leading. Dry flat for 24 hours.

  2. Using color key and photo as a reference, paint each pattern area, (Note: the last two digits on the Window Color bottle refer to the two digit numbers on the pattern. Eg: Kelly Green's number is 16008, and is refered to on the pattern as 08).

  3. Comb wet paint with the combing tool to remove air bubbles; always comb in the same direction. Be sure to wipe the tool clean before switching colors.

  4. Squeeze a thin coat of Crystal Clear on berries and the center of the flower (one section at a time). Using spoon from the tool set, pour crystal beads over wet paint and let dry. (The red berries and yellow flower center will reflect through the beads.)

  5. Use the small stencil brush from the brush set to apply Etching Medium according to color key; let dry.

  6. Cut 6 inches of ribbon to hang each ornament. Finish with small bows hot glued to the top of each ornament.
