4. Now add your choice of bead(s) to your wire.
5. It’s time to do another loop. This time, make a loop by wrapping the wire around the smaller end of your round-nosed pliers making sure you leave approx. 1/4 in. between the bead and loop.
6. Continue to hold the loop with your round nosed pliers and use your hand to wrap the longest part of the wire around the 1/4 inch of wire you left between the loop and bead. It will probably wrap around 3-4 times.
7. Use wire cutters to trim off the long wire. Then use your bent nosed pliers to finish closing the coil. Again, as before, you may have to use your file.
8. You’ve finished the first section of your chain. To ensure that it will lay correctly, use your bent-nosed pliers to make sure both loops are facing the same way.
