When i’m finishing up making a necklace (with wire) and putting the clasps on, what is a good technique to make the wire look neat, and also not have that little bit at the end that sticks out and pokes you?

Grace asked:


I have a bit of spare time on my hands and thought i’d take up making jewelry. I just need to know, what things do you need?
Wire - is it just called wire if i ask for it?
What are the little metal pieces called to secure the loop on the end of wire when you put the clasp on?
And are the clasps just..clasps or is there another name?
what else would i need, besides beads/pendants.

Thanks :)
