How to Attach a Cord Ends to Jewelry
Do you have trouble attaching the cord end findings onto handmade jewelry? This jewelry how-to from <a href="http://www.webeads.com/2011/09/27/">WeBeads</a> will teach you how to attach those findings to corded jewelry like necklaces, bracelets and more.

Step 1

The specialty of this cord end is that there is a prong in the middle which enables you to extend two strands of the thread or cord.

Step 2

Double up the thread and insert the thread into the prong.

Step 3

With the chain nose pliers, grasp the right side of the cord end and squeeze until it is flat against the cord.

Step 4

Repeat for the left side of the cord end and make sure it is lying flat on top of the right side of the cord end.

Step 5
