Take a piece of wire 6 inches long and bend 3/4 of an inch if it at a ninety degree angle around your needle nosed pliers, now you have a right angle. Bend the wire to make a loop around the pliers and a ninety degree angle facing the other way. Now wrap the rest of the short end of the wire around the other end of the wire.

Securing the Seaglass

The the wire down to about and inch left. Bend the very end of the wire over and pinch it with the pliers to make a tiny loop in the very end of the wire. Wrap the rest of the wire around it making a big swirl. Push the swirl down in an open spot on the seaglass.

Making It Tight

Go on the back of the seaglass and twist the wire. Twisting it makes it tighter so the seaglass won't just fall out of the wire.

All Done
