2. Use round nosed pliers to make a loop on one end of the wire.
3. Now its time to string your beads. If you use seed beads, I recommend putting the beads in a shallow dish. Hold the unlooped end of the wire and scoop the beads onto the wire by dipping the end of the wire into the bowl and through the pile of beads. If you want your bead design to be in the middle of the necklace, continue to scoop on the beads until you have enough on to almost cover about half of the wire.
4. Next, add your accent beads. For the choker pictured, I used purple iridescent 11 Japanese seed beads as my main color and accented the middle part with 4mm amethyst colored Czech beads, 6mm clear Czech beads, and one multicolored cloisonné bead.
