Attaching Clasps is a basic and essential technique for neatly ending off you...
Attaching Clasps is a basic and essential technique for neatly ending off your necklaces and bracelets, and allowing you to easily put on and remove your jewellery. Continuing from the basic technique of crimping, for this we will need flexible metal wire, crimps, flat nosed pliers, side cutters and any type of clasp. Types of clasps include fob clasps, boltring clasps, hook and eye clasps, screw clasps, among many others. The most basic clasp is the parrot clasp, which is what we will be using here. You simply take your wire, thread a crimp onto the end of it. Then you bring the end of the wire up through the loop at the end of the clasp, bring it back around and thread the wire back through the crimp the other way. Pull the wire gently to make sure the crimp is sitting closely to the clasp. Following this, you squash the crimp onto the wire and cut off the loose piece of wire with a pair of side cutters. Repeat the same technique on the other side of the necklace with the other side of the clasp.

Nicely done.
god bless you!!! :)
omg thanks so much for making this video!
I just started making bracelets and necklaces and I had no idea how to tie them together and thanks to this video I finally know one way to do it haha.
its very nice helpful video
Thank you SO MUCH for this video!! You saved my life. I've made over 50 beautiful beaded necklaces but they were falling apart because I was putting the clasps on wrong. I bought books and looked it up but yours was the most simply put.
XOXO
