  Step 1

  All you really need to do this is a paper clip. Any paper clip will do.

  But it goes much faster if you have a pair of pliers.

  Adding beads is optional (some days I feel like beads...some days I don't)

• 

  Step 2

  Unbend the paper clip.

• 

  Step 3

  Carefully bend over the very tip of the paper clip and add a bead if you like.

• 

  Step 4

  Bend the paper clip at about a 90° angle.

  Be careful if using pliers to bend the paper clip. It's very easy to leave scratch marks or scrape off the coating.

• 

  Step 5

  Bend loops in a figure 8 pattern under the bead.

• 

  Step 6

  Here's what the first 2 loops look like from the bottom.

• 

  Step 7

  Keep adding loops in this manner until you have 4 or 5 loops.

• 

  Step 8

  Final steps:

  ~Squish the loops all down together by pressing from the top down on to a hard surface like a table or the floor.

  ~Bend over the other tip of the paper clip.

  ~Form into a circle to fit around your finger.
