Make sure that the two ends of the Soft Flex wire are through the Crimp Tube with Loop, and are both on the same side of the loop; this makes it easier to trim them close. Check for gaps between the beads, and pull the beading wire snug. Do NOT, however, pull the wire tight, as this will pull the beads off center and make the finished earrings crooked. Hold the top drilled Swarovski bicone bed between your thumb and forefinger of your non-dominant hand while you tighten the wire through the crimp tube.
You may wish to use your regular, flat-nose pliers to bend the loop slightly to the side to make cutting the wire close to the crimp bead easier.
Now, use your flat-nose pliers or crimp tool to close the Crimp Tube with Loop securely.
Finally, cut the remaining pieces of wire very close to the top of the crimp tube. Use your flat-sided pliers to straighten the loop on the crimp.
Finally, add the loop on the crimp tube to the loop on the silver leverback wires. Repeat from Step One to make the other earring, and you'll be ready to wear your Blue Lightning Beaded Earrings. Enjoy!
