Step 1
Crimp a clasp onto one end of your beading wire. | | Step 2
Add a 2x1mm crimp bead to the beading wire. I have placed mine about an inch from the clasp. | | Step 3
Use chain nose pliers to hold the crimp bead in place. |

|
Step 7
Add another 2x1mm crimp bead. I have spaced mine about an inch from the last bead. Then repeat steps 3-7 until desired length. | | Step 8
When you have reached your desired length, finish your piece by crimping the other end of the clasp onto the beading wire. | | An Alternative
As an alternative, try crimping the 2x1mm crimp bead with a pair of crimping pliers rather than chain nose pliers. |
