Some times I'm reminded to talk about the basics in addition to new projects, techniques and exciting jewelry news...like today, when a friend on the Michael's discussion forum talked about the importance of learning how to open jump rings! A few weeks ago, I'd created a step by step photo tutorial on the technique, and I hope it helps anyone who may be trying to figure out just what I mean by "twisting" the sides. ;-)
