Sorry this took me so long...

This is what it looks like from the back. It is a simple wrap at the point end that I fit as tight as I can to the point. I then make a run up the center of the back and do another wrap around the stem, coming back under the wire and making a loop at the end. I make sure that both ends are pointing at the point rather than pointing out where they might stick the wearer. I use some jewelers cement to lock the wire down and keep it from shifting. After it hardens, I'll take some round jewelers pliers, straighten up the wire a little and clean off some of the jeweler's cement so that it looks a little better. I'm no where near to being a jewelry maker and don't claim to be, but I haven't had one complaint yet and many people have several, so it must be working...
