6. Step 1 Bend the wire into a bangle shape or 5 individual shapes.
You need to coil in and wire wrap to make it a shape and hide the ends of the wire.

7. Step 2 Decorate the watercolor paper
To use watercolor you need to add water to the colors and add them to the paper.

8. Step 3
Place your watercolor paper color side out on the inside of you wire piece.
Paper clip the watercolor paper to the wire frame.
If you are doing a bangle you will need to bend the wire around a bracelet mandrel first.
