First step is to place the beads on the headpins.
Next bend the wire at a sharp right angle.
Then grasp with round nose pliers or bail making pliers and wrap around the tip tightly forming a hook shape.
Leave enough room to slide the end of the chain onto the wire...
And form the wrap making a tight 2 layer wrap
Then snip off close to the bead.
The result are a pair of attractive dangles.
With the jeweled headpin adding just a touch of class at the bottom. This pair was just listed at

The components for this design are a pair of french hooks with fine chain,a jeweled head pin and two different sized beads. I chose to use silver for the metals and agate and tiger eye beads from http://www.magpiegemstones.com/catalog/item/5238556/8841592.htm
