Learn how to use easy wire working techniques to create this Making Waves Cha Cha necklace in this PotomacBeads tutorial.
Cut about 10 inches of 26ga wire. Using pliers bend the wire into an eye pin, about 3/4 inch from the end. Drop a jump ring onto the wire, then, holding the loop, wrap the tail end around the long piece of wire a few times. Trim the end.
