Step 1: String a bead onto the head pin. Using a pair of Chain Nose pliers, create a right angle leaving 2mm of space between the top of the bead and the bend in the wire.
Step 2: Using a pair of Round Nose pliers,bend the wire into a loop. Attach to chain, jump ring, split ring etc…
Step 3: Using a pair of Chain Nose pliers, grip the loop and coil the wire around the base until it meets the bead. Cut off excess wire.
