1. Glue one motorcycle piece and all the wheels to thin cardboard or 1/64 inch plywood. ( I used the plywood)

2. Cut excess paper from around the wheels and
the motorcycle.

3. Cut around other motorcycle print and glue to
other side of motorcycle piece.

4. Drill hole in center of all separate wheels.

5. Glue brass nail into each wheel with the head on the same side as the print. Glue a seed bead onto the nail on the other side of the wheel.

6. Let dry and then snip off the rest of the nail with wire cutters.

7. I colored the edges of the wheels with red and black permanent markers. You could also paint these.

8. Glue the seed bead to the matching wheel of the motorcycle. Repeat for all the wheels.
