The pen or marker is about 1 cm thick.You have a lot of room to make adjustments later on if you loop the wire around twice.You can slide the wire off if you have 2 loops around the marker.
Step 2: To form a single ring, trim away excess wire.
You have 2 full circles of wire if you remove the wire from the rest of the coil.You can fit a single ring over your bottom lip by trimming along both ends of the wire.It is better to have more wire than not.Try to cut the wire in a straight line.Your wire will be too sharp if you cut at an angle.
Step 3: Pinch both ends of the ring together.
Push both ends of the wire towards one another.Your lip ring may slip if you leave too much of a gap.
