Step 1Assemble your supplies. Memeory wire cutters are a must!
-
Step 2Cut your memory wire 1 and 1/2 loops.

Step 3With the round nose pliers, make a loop on one end of the wire.

Step 4With the flat nose pliers, bend your loop down, perpendicular to the wire.

Step 10Again with the flat nose pliers, fold the loop down from the back of the loop to open it.

Step 11Slide the beads down the wire and hook the loop in the open space.
