Frog and other animal bead question

[dgg112]

how do you keep your frog beads from being top heavy???? It seems to me, the frog is going to end up hanging upside down every time!! Is there a trick I'm missing here?????
thanks for any ideas!

You can put him anywhere on the body of the bead that you want. If I want the frog to be on the bracelet as opposed to dangling on it, I will wrap his body around the bead instead of vertically. The trick is getting used to putting him in different positions if you're used to putting him one one way. That dang muscle memory'll getcha every time.

He'll never hang upside down if you wire wrap him, though.

thanks Rebekah,
I guess if I want it to dangle the mandrel is either going to have to go thru the head or thru the shoulders right behind.....................
boy that sounds easy!!! NOT!!! LOLOLOLOL
