Here we go. The Fantastical Hot-Goat Method of Wire Attatchment (FHGMWA)!!!

-The first step in FHGMWA is to ensure that you have the proper amount of clean, stripped wire on each end. FHGMWA then instructs you to lay the two ends next to each other in the direction that they will naturally be when completed.

-Slide some FHGMWA-approved heat shrink tubing over one end and slide it away from that nasty hot soldering point.

-Begin to wrap the ends over each other in a helical manner much to the pleasure of FHGMWA.

-Solder according to that which you know, for this is the one skill that FHGMWA refuses to teach.

-Once soldered, FHGMWA recommends some denatured alcohol be scrubbed on the joint to remove flux and impurities, further preventing the chance of corrosion.

-Now for the secret weapon of FHGMWA: liquid electrical tape!!! Brush enough on to cover the joint and defend against water penetration.

-Slide heat-shrink over the joint, heat-shrink it, and TA-DA!!!!! A beautiful FHGMWA-made wire splice.

Fresh from the kitchen, just for you.
