Cocoon Beads and Tutorial

As I keep exploring with wire and what can it do for my advantages, I created these -what I called as- Cocoon Beads along the way. I like this design very much and have been incorporating them in my design -A LOT-. They're fun, versatile, and easy to make, have this pretty organic touch in it, and they look good almost on everything! I'd like to think that these beads are one of my Signature creations.
They're made of heavily hammered round wire and then coiled to shape. They're that easy!
Here are a few examples of how these beads used on a design:
