Step 20: Connect this loop to your clasp as shown at right. In this case we are using 6mm magnetic clasps. Step 21: Grasp the loop that you completed in step 19 with your bent chain nose pliers and while holding the loop firmly with the pliers in your non-dominant hand, push the wire to wrap around the wire segment between the two loops. Continue to push the wire, with the wire tail perpendicular to the wire segment between the loops until the space between the loops is filled with wrapped wire. Step 22: Cut the excess wire with your flush cutter Step 23: Using two pair of bent chain nose pliers, hold the loop at the clasp with one pair of pliers and use the other pair of pliers to squeeze and twist the small cut end of the wire until it is flat. Step 24: At this point you are ready to add you focal bead or gemstone to the chain. Step 25: Finish the necklace by repeating steps 1 through 23 on the opposite end of the chain.
