  Step 1

  Thread your wire through your needle, make sure one side is shorter than the other.

• 

  Step 2

  Position the needle in the bottom hole of the squinkie. Make sure it will come out near the center top.

• 

  Step 3

  use pliers (a thimble would probably work too) to push needle through squinkie.

• 

  Step 4

  when needle comes through the top, use the pliers to pull the needle all the way through. (the wire is really hard on the needle and the pliers don't help either, I went through five needles doing this project, dont think you are doing something wrong if they break)

• 

  Step 5

  Pull the shorter side of the wire all the way through the squinkie

• 

  Step 6

  Once the wire is all the way through position the needle to go back through. make sure it will end up in the hole at the bottom of the squinkie.

• 

  Step 7

  Push the needle back through to the bottom of the squinkie. if it doesn't go through the hole on the bottom, then pull it back a little bit and try re-angling it.

• 

  Step 8

  Once the needle is all the way through, use the pliers to pull the rest of the shorter strand through so you get a loop.

• 

  Step 9

  next clip the wires shorter and pull the loop small enough that there is barely space between the wire and the head.

• 

  Step 10

  Use the pliers to help tie a knot in the wire.

• 

  Step 11

  make sure to pull it tight.

• 

  Step 12

  use the pliers to shove the knot up into the hole at the bottom of the squinkie.

• 

  Step 13

  you should have all of the extra wire shoved into there. just keep working at it and it will all go in.

• 

  Step 14

  next pull the wire at the top to desired length.

• 

  Step 15

  and now you have an adorable marvel charm :)
