Step 1) Take approx 1m of nylon, thread through the centre hole of the sieve so that approx 7cm protrudes from the back. Thread the other end through a hole next to it and knot the two ends twice at the back, then thread back up through the centre hole. Do not trim the short end; you will need it later to secure the finish.

	Step 2) Next threads one of the beads i.e. Pearl bicone or Czech followed by a seed bead. Feed the end of the nylon over the seed bead, back through the bead and through the centre hole. Pull so the beads sit tight to the sieve.	Step 3) Thread up through the next hole from the back of the sieve and repeat Step 2 using random beads. When you have beaded every hole, secure the two ends of thread on the reverse by knotting.

	Step 4) Trim both ends of nylon. Place the beaded sieve on the ring base and use chain nose pliers to close the claws over the edge of the sieve.
