1. Thread on one fire polish bead, and one bead cap facing down to a headpin. Make a wrapped wire loop and trim the excess wire.
2. Take one head pin and cut off the end with the head on it.
3. Wrap the center of the headpin around the wrapped wire loop, leaving the two ends out to the side.
4. Take your round nose pliers and make a coil with each end of the headpin wire by wrapping it in towards the center.
5. Open the loop of the earring finding, the same way you would a jump ring. Attach the wrapped wire loop to the earring finding and close the loop.
6. All done!
