Today we're going to talk about how to wire wrap beads. This is a great way to provide
accents for your beads, making them a little more fun and they can even act as pendants.
How you're going to start is to have a bead that essentially if it could have dremel lines
around it, that will be perfect. That's the ideal bead. This one also has a hole in it,
which was great for an added support. You're going to start by inserting your wire into
the bead and starting to curl the wire around the bead. Eventually, what you'll end up with
as you curve it around the bead is something like this. You can curl it all the way around
using that same wrist motion that we've been using. That helps to keep it in place. Eventually
what you end up with is a great little pendant for any necklace. That's how you wire wrap
a bead.
