Step 2Forming the Base

First, place the twisted end against the outside edge of the jar, near the top. A jar is handy here because we can grip the end against the jar using our pliers. If you are using a glass vessel here (and in my case, a mason jar) take care not to grip the glass too hard. You're only holding the wire in place to make a cleaner circle, and it only needs to be held down, not clamped tight. If you're uncomfortable with this step, use your hands to hold the wire in place or find a plastic container of similar size and shape.
