I know I've been telling you all about this one for years now but finally, here is a quick tutorial on how to create this wonderful pendant hook!  It's designed so that you can wear your gorgeous wire wrapped and wire weaved pendants on a strand of beads if you choose!  Make these in copper, sterling and even gold fill and you'll be able to wear every pendant you've made or purchased with any of your favorite bead / necklace strands!  Enjoy!
Start with 20, 18 or 16 gauge, round, dead soft wire.

Cut 3 inches

Use a dowel and bend the wire in half, creating a small, attractive curve, suitable for your pendant bale.

Hammer the curve to harden it and flare the wire for good looks ;)

Bend the U shaped wire in half again, bringing the ends down, opposite the curved face. 

The bend should leave 1/2 inch or less to hang the pendant from.
​
Cut the ends neatly away.

Insert your pendant through a cut end, then hand the adapter onto your favorite strand of beads and enjoy them all together!

This is totally awesome!! I've been struggling to figure out how to attach pendants onto beaded necklaces for the longest time and this idea was exactly what I needed. Thanks so much and please keep your tutorials coming!
