Design earrings.Slip beads onto a headpin to complete your design. Cut the tip of the headpin, leaving about 3/8 to 1/2 inch exposed.

Using round nose pliers, grip the tip of the headpin and roll your wrist down to make a loop.

Grip the headpin close to the top bead and slightly reverse the bend to make the loop symmetrical.

Using flat nose pliers twist the loop open to attach the earwire or post. Twisting keeps your circular shape.

Attach the earwire or post, and twist to close the loop.
