not too fancy, not too plain



I already had the hoops but they were kind of boring, so I thought I'd spice things up a bit. They were a little tricky to make, but not too hard. Just wrap wire around the top of the hoop (on one side of the clasp) to hold it in place - probably about twice is good enough, then as you twist it around the hoop, add beads. You can adjust the beads in various places, but make sure to tightly wrap the wire around the hoop so the beads stay in place. When you get to the end, wrap the end of the wire around the other side of the clasp and cut extra off.
