I'm so happy to have found this video. I've just started making keychains and have watched so many trying to make the perfect loop on the pin. Your method is by far the easiest and neatest. Thank you for sharing and saving my poor fingers and wrist from all the wire twisting. 😃

Thanks so much for this video. I love your way so much better. I’m new at this and find others techniques way too difficult. When you showed to bend it over and snip it off, that clinched it for me. You made my life easier! 👍😊

Hi Rachel, I've had tools and other bits 'n' bobs for making charms for ages and have been trying out different ideas but was not completely happy with how they turned out. Thanks to your great tutorial I see how to use the round nose pliers and finger to gently bend the head/eye pins to get that lovely smooth curve that you showed us how to achieve. THANK YOU for your brilliant and clear instructions. warmest best wishes, Susanne

@TYJ419 Hi Tracey, Yes, that's right - It makes more sense when you're actually making the charms yourself and can visualise it in reality. There are other ways to get this effect, but this is what I find easiest, and especially good if you're new to jewellry making. Hugs, Rachel

@Tracymarie100 Hi Tracey, the jump rings I am using, and most regularly use are 6mm, though I also keep a supply of 8mm when larger ones are needed. I rarely use any smaller than 6mm as they are very fiddly to work with, and there is not enough space in the rings to attach other things to. Hope that helps, Rachel

Hi Dawn, The heart shaped beads were from ebay (uk) a few years ago. They are lampwork beads - I'm sure you'll find something similar if you search for lamp work beads. Glad you have been inspired It's quite addictive once you get going and there are all sorts of variations you can make for more complicated charms for handbags, mobile phones, bookmarks etc - make great gifts too! Have fun :-) Best Wishes, Rachel

The heart bead is an example of Lamp Work. There are many different styles f Lamp Work beads, but due to the lengthy process of making them, they are often quite expensive - But I just had to have them :-) lol
