Stringing with Beading Wire

printable version

Step 1.

Cut a section of C-Flex 2" longer than your project needs. String beads on to the C-Flex. Secure one end of the strand with tape or Bead Stopper

Step 2.

String one 2x2 crimp bead. String the C-Flex through one end of the clasps

Step 3.

Loop the C-Flex over the clasps and back through the crimp bead

Step 4.

Slide the crimp bead close the clasp, leaving a little room to allow the clasp to move freely.

Step 5.

Use the tip of a chain nose pliers and cover the entire crimp bead. Press the pliers firmly to flatten the crimp bead. One end of the project is finished.

Step 6.

Slide the strand of beads next to the crimp bead at the finished end of the project. Repeat Step 2 through Step 5 to add the other end of the clasps.

Cut off the tail of C-Flex using wire cutter.
