2. Now take about 8 inches of 22 gauge wire and use the wire wrap bead technique with one carnelian bead, but instead of finishing both ends with a wrap loop, use the wire coil head pin technique to curl the other end. If you'd like, you can even wrap your bead twice with the wire so that you create what looks like a wire cage around the bead.

3. Pick up your jasper bead, open the eye loop, and connect this to the carnelian wrap you just created.
