First, cut a piece of 1" wire mesh to fit the size of a Medium Embroidery Hoop.
Place the mesh between the 2 parts of the hoop and tighten / secure in place.
Next, cut strips of ribbon to the same length. Loop the ribbon through the mesh so that it hangs down in the same direction.
Create blocks of color (i.e. patches of the same color) with the looped ribbon.
Next hang or hold the chandelier up to see where to cut the strips of ribbon.
Cut the ribbon at angels allowing the colors at the back of the hoop to be seen from the front - i.e. cut the strips of ribbon at the front shorter than those at the back.
Cut until you have the desired look & feel.
Next, using floral wire create a floral bouquet from peonies, eucalyptus and palm leaves.
Attach the bouquet to the front of the hoop using floral wire. Add smaller sprigs of eucalyptus to achieve the desired look.
Once complete use wire, string or fishing line to hang the chandelier.
