1. Start about 1� inches from the end of the wire, turning the long piece of the wire to the front of the pliers; make a loop {one complete circle}.

2. Working on the long piece of the wire; pinch a little less than � of an inch and bend to the back.

3. Press it down at the top, roll the top to the right just a little bit. You are rolling two wires together (picture #1 in tutorial #1)

4. Working on the back of the wire; grasp it at the top and bend it up and to the left and to the back of the �B� you should have a �P� (picture #1).

5. Grasp the wire in the cross of the �B� inside loop ( picture #2) and bend it to the front

6. Grasp the two wires from the back and ; bring down the wire forming a half circle, go around the back to form the 'B' (picture #3)

7. Grasp the wire at the bottom and bring it up to make the �e�

8. Grasp it about half way from the �B� , bring it down to the right to form a loop (you made an �e�)

9. Grasp the wire from the back at the bottom and bring it up (picture #4)

10. Grasp the wire even with the �B� and bend it to the back.; pinch it at the top (picture #5)

11. Grasp it from the back at the tip; bend it to the right (picture #6)

12. Grasp the wire that you just bend, an bring it around the pliers and the wire; to the front of the �t� you are making the cross of the �t�

13. Grasp it on the other side of the �t� and bring it to the back (make sure is even with the front)

14. Grasp it at the back and bend it down and hide it behind (carefully pinch the cross of the �t'� ) making sure is even and you do not see the back wires. (picture #7)

15. Grasp it at the bottom of the �t' and bend it up

16. Grasp the wire even with the top with the �t� bend it down and to the front looks like an �L�

17. Grasp it at he bottom and bend it up, toward you and pinch it a little

18. Grasp it in the back about the level of the �e� and bend it to the right, to make a hump you made the �h� (picture #8)

19. Congratulations you finish the name. Now, take the end; grasp it a little higher than the tip of the �B� (look at the picture for reference) and bend it up, fold it back and around the pliers twice, to form a double loop; then around the wire twice to finish it; cut the excess in the back. This is for the chain; do the same with the piece of wire that you left in the very beginning. Finish filing the ends and carefully crimp the ends. Polish it a little and Enjoy it!!!

20. TO DO THE HEART, take about 2 � � of wire and bend it in half, pinch it and roll it, open the two ends. Grasp it about � inch and bend it down, (make one loop) grasp the other side and do the same. Grasp it at the top of the second loop and bend it back; pinch it . Cut the extra wire in the first loop, make it look like a heart. Fold the wire to make a loop to hang do it twice. Put it on the name.
