| Step 1: Cut and straighten a 3 inch piece of 21 G 1/2 hard gold-filled or sterling silver wire. (20G wire can be used, but adding the end cap to the end of the wire will be a little more difficult as you may have to either ream the hole in the end cap or file the end of the wire so that it fits into the end cap bead.) |

|
Step 2: Add metal pegs 1, 2 and 4 to your jig. Make a loop in the end of the wire and place this loop over peg 1. Wrap the wire around peg 2 as shown at right. |
|
| Step 3: Add the 5/16 inch Super Peg (peg 3) to your jig. Now wrap the wire around peg 3 and to the right of peg 4 as shown at right. |

This WigJig jewelry making project is provided as part of WigJig University - College of Jewelry Designs. We try to provide interesting jewelry projects using beads, jewelry wire and other jewelry supplies. We hope that these pictures will provide you enough information for you to complete this project. Some of the skills and techniques have not been discussed here. For beginners, we suggest that you visit our Beginners Start Here pages. These pages discuss the skills necessary for making jewelry in the detail that beginners need. We also suggest that beginners to making jewelry might need to visit the WigJig University College of Jewelry Techniques for additional information about some of the skills and techniques shown.
Most, but not all of the jewelry supplies shown here can be purchased in our WigJig store. We try to have a complete selection of jewelry supplies in our store including chain, wire, glass beads, findings, watches, tools, etc.
