the "head" gets stuck into the large hole side
|
now we will make a loop on the other side
|
using a round nose plier grasp the
headpin - leaving a little space
|
roll the headpin 90 degrees on the plier
|
while still holding the wire now
bend the wire next to the clasp
back
about 30 degrees
|
adjust the plier and pull the
wire around the plier to complete
the loop
|
note the space you have left
for the wire to wrap around to
secure it.
|
you may have to bend your circle a
little to make it perfectly round
|
make any adjustments to make
it look like this
|
|
ready for the wraps
|
grab the loop with the round nose
plier as in the photo
|
while holding the loop wrap
the wire around itself a couple
times or whatever will fit in the
space you provided
|
|
using the micro cutters cut off the
excess wire.
|
using a chain nose plier bend
the cut edge of wire into the
loop so it does not stick out.
|
cut a 2" piece of sterling wire
|
Bend the wire all the way around the round nose pliers
|
|
|
Bend lower wire back
|
Adjust needle nose
|
Bend top wire around to make
a circle
|
|
|
now pull your finished clasp loop
onto your open loop
|
|
now just like you finished the
clasp loop before - grab the loop
with the round nose pliers
|
twist the wire around itself
|
cut off excess wire like before
|
squeeze the cut edge of wire
into itself
|
|
now your ready for your first bead
|
|
|
now create a loop on the other
side of your bead
|
and just keep repeating the
steps till your through.
|
Done!
