07:54As I say, I try to make all my tutorials easy for the kids, and this little piece is red.
08:02Okay, not that you might be able to see it, okay?
08:09All right, so, done with the coloring.
08:13So now, I'm going to, I'm going to put this piece on the bottom.
08:21Let's put some glue.
08:27I'm going to put this piece on the bottom, and I'm going to put the four holes on the bottom.
08:40It's going to be four holes here.
08:43One, two, three, four, okay?
08:50And we're going to put this here like this on the bottom so that it's just like that.
08:58See?
08:59So it's going to look like this.
09:01And then, we can put our two jewels on there.
09:11One, and two, okay?
09:15Just like that.
09:17And now, we can put our string through.
09:24Let's put our string through.
09:25One, two, like that.
09:31And then, we're going to tie it, okay?
09:36Just like that.

10:10Just like that.
10:12Two more.
10:13We have two more to put on.
10:16Two more.
10:22I just want you to see.
10:27And don't worry about it being like, oh, it's got to be even.
10:31It doesn't need to be even.
10:33It could be not even.
10:35Not too uneven.
10:37But it could be uneven.
10:40Okay?
10:40One more to put on.
10:48Okay?

11:01Okay.
11:02Here we go.
11:03So, see what it's looking like?
11:06That's beautiful, right?
11:10Now, I'm going to add this to the back of this.
11:13I think that's what I had that for.
11:16So, add that on.
11:21Let's add this one to the back of it.
11:25Okay.
11:28There we go.
11:31Add that on.
11:34Now, we put a hole in the middle.
11:44Like that.
11:46And I'm going to use a pipe cleaner.
11:51Now, put it on.
11:58Actually, I think I prefer to use a string.
12:01I'm going to get the string.
12:03I thought the pipe cleaner would be cool.
12:05But I don't want the pipe cleaner.
12:07I changed my mind.
12:08So, I'm just going to get a little piece of a red string to add on to it.
12:21Okay?
12:22Here's a piece of red.
12:25And let's push this through.
12:34Yes.

13:02Do that fold.
13:03And then you're going to see how it's going to look.
