How to Use Manipulating Hoops
Make wine glass charms or hoop earrings by stringing beads and charms directly onto the hoop and bending up the round wire end with round-nose or narrow flat-nose pliers. Close the hoop by clicking bent end up through hole in the flat side. Attach additional charms with jump rings or split rings.

Earring end broke twice when turned up
I bought 20 pairs of hoops to make earrings. The earring end broke when turned up. Not solid enough. [R&T Reply: Hi Joanna, just checking if you are bending the round wire end, as illustrated?? The flattened end with a hole is a stress point that is too weak for bending.]

MANIPULATING HOOPS FOR WINE GLASS CHARMS
THESE ARE THE BEST HOOPS FOR WINE GLASS CHARMS. THEY ARE THIN ENOUGH TO ACCEPT MOST BEADS (SOMETIMES I HAVE TO PUT A CLEAR SEED BEAD ON FIRST OR SOME BEADS CAN SLIDE OVER THE END WITH THE HOLE), THEY ARE SOFT ENOUGH TO EASILY TURN THE END UP AT A 90 DEGREE ANGLE AND THEY'RE BIG ENOUGH THAT YOU CAN USE A FEW CHUNKY BEADS WITHOUT TAKING TOO MUCH AWAY FROM YOUR CENTER SPACE. MEMORY WIRE IS DIFFICULT TO CUT AND EVEN HARDER TO BEND AT THE END. THESE ARE IDEAL!
