2nd, squeeze one end to flat and then slide one heart-shape acrylic bead;


3rd, start to make the WigJig pattern like: Lift up the flat wire end, curve the wire around the round nose plier close to the bead, bent the wire against the bead with finger, curve the wire around the round nose pliers, direct the wire to the other side along the previous wire with finger and then make another three curves;
4th, curve the wire to make it move upwards;


5th, cut the excess wire to make it be flush with its adjacent curve;
6th, loop the end around the tip on round nose pliers;
