I’ve been wanting to write an article about making a “plain loop”. This is one of the basic techniques needed for many beading and jewelry projects and requires only a few tools. It does require practice to get your loops to look nice though, and I still often make the occasional wonky looking loop that needs to be fixed. Here’s a picture of what the article will step you through making:

    thanks amanda! I am by no means any expert… but I thought I’d share some of the tips that I wish I had known before I started up. Hopefully, I will get some more tutorials up soon in this same vein…

    Really great explanation and pictures-I’ve been beading awhile, people even buy my stuff, but I needed that refresher, as I was getting squished loops again.
