Start out by loosening the screw in the screw-tite a little. Insert your wire, and then tighten the screw. Pull at the wire, hereby making sure that it is secured. If it comes out, cut off the tip of the wire and try again.

We have added a little tassel for decoration. The tassel is made of the  end of the cord found on the amethyst bead strand. just fold the threads and glue them into the cord end. Then trim to your desired length.

When your bracelet has the desired length, cut off the wire, leaving bit of excess wire that will fit into the screw-tite. Then do as you did in the beginning, insert the wire into the cord end and carefully tighten the screw.
