Use the rosary pliers to grip the straight end of the eye pin, pulling it toward you to form a 45° angle. Continue by turning the eye pin away from you until you’ve completed one full loop. Secure by tucking the end of the loop into the hole of the bead or bead cap. Open one jump ring using two pair of chain nose pliers. Slide the jump ring through the loops on the ends of two bead links. Close the jump ring.
