I didn’t hang this yet, but it is beautiful! I have four stars for the awful directions. They are not clear on where the bead strings should go. The “B” bead strings are shorter and connect on the inside. You have to do a pattern of 3 together skip one then 2 together to make it work. For the A strings that connect on the outer decorated circles, you need to attach one to each smaller top circle hole and then one in every other hole on the larger ring. I would do a few and then make sure they’re not on an angle or they’ll look more swirled rather than straight. I can’t wait to hang this up! I just wish it hadn’t taken so long to put together! Hopefully these steps will help someone else!
