Abstract:
1. The method of making a decorative article having a plurality of distinct elements comprising the steps of: providing a special jig having a length and comprising a plurality of pin groups positioned longitudinally along the jig length; bending a wire on the jig to form a central support having a length and a plurality of butterfly loops positioned along said central support length, each butterfly loop comprising a pair of wings and corresponding to each pin group; bending the ends of the central support to form an end loop at each end thereof; positioning a first distinct element from said plurality of distinct elements upon the central support adjacent a first butterfly loop from said plurality of butterfly loops; bending each wing of the first butterfly loop around the first distinct element thereby securing the first distinct element to the central support; positioning a second distinct element from said plurality of distinct elements upon the central support adjacent a second butterfly loop from said plurality of butterfly loops; bending each wing of the second butterfly loop around the second distinct element thereby securing the second distinct element to the central support in such a manner that the second distinct element covers the bent wings of the first butterfly loop; sequentially positioning other distinct elements from the plurality of distinct elements upon the central support adjacent to other butterfly loops from the plurality of butterfly loops in such a manner that each successive distinct element covers a preceding butterfly loop along the length of central support.
