Bend your wire into a zig zag pattern emulating the one in picture 4. I use flat nosed pliers to make the shape :)

Using needle nose pliers, bend the top piece, and bottom piece of wire, and make some nice, neat loops.
I chose to live on the edge and be a little funky by making the top piece into a swirl! Go me!!

Now using a ring mandrel, dowel, or anything circular (a pen! a lipstick!) Bend your wire around it to make round.

Start threading some pretty beads, charms, etc..onto it. -
