Step 20: Wrap the wire around until the gap between the
circle and the top of the pendant is filled with wrapped wire.
This will take about 1 to 2 full wraps of wire. See the picture at
right. Once you have completed the wraps, cut the excess wire with
your flush cutter. After cutting the excess wire, there will be a
small wire tail that sticks up. To flatten this short wire tail,
grip the circle with one pair of bent chain nose pliers and squeeze and
twist the wire tail until it is flat.
The finished hand-made jewelry wire bail is shown at left and below. The pendants shown her are actually smaller than they appear in the pictures. They are our 7x10mm pendant beads and can be found in our WigJig store by selecting here.
