hi sasi.. if u r using wire use one or two crimplocks to close the chain. after the end bead insert the crimplock and reinsert the end of the wire in to the crimplock and tighten it until it make a loop..now crush the crimp and cut the excess wire..u can use hooks or any locks through the loop..hope u can under..

i saw a post in this forum showing this tutorial..search for it...
