This is my first wiring attemp for this procumben! Let me know what you guys think. Always open to pointers. Wasn’t too sure how to wrap the wire at the end without trapping needles and baby branches so I just went very loose at the end.

That wiring is fine. If it does the job that's good enough for me unless I want to show a tree then I'll make an effort to make the wire look good as well.
I assume you made some bends in the trunk or that branch? Remember that wiring is all about changing the shape of a tree. We don't wire just for the sake of having wires on a tree so there's no need to wire around needles and really small branchlets unless they need to be moved or shaped.
