Wrap It Up: The last bead should be on the opposite cord to the first bead. (If your first bead was on the left cord, your last should be on the right cord).
Thread both ends of the cord through a crimp bead and slide up snug against the last bead. Firmly flatten crimp. Position the second crimp with an opening big enough to fit the button. Don’t make the opening so snug that it’s hard to undo the button with 1 hand – ¼ inch works great.
Thread a few beads on each tail, secure with a simple overhand knot, and then trim excess cord.
