Instructions.


1) Take both lengths of beading wire and thread one crimp tube (BD314) and one jump ring (JR504) onto both. Take the wire ends around and back through the crimp tube. Pull the crimp tube fairly snug against the jump ring, allowing some movement. Crimp the crimp tube with your crimping pliers (PL125) and cut any excess wire off with your side cutters (PL495).

2) Thread one Gold Stardust Bead (GB404) on both lengths of wire.

3) Take the shorter length of wire and begin your beadwork (make sure to thread one Swarovski Bicone - AC4031-between each curved tube.)

4) Start your beadwork.

6) Take the Bead Stopper off of the shorter length of beading wire and thread the last Gold Stardust bead (GB404) onto both lengths of wire, followed by the last crimp tube (BD314). Thread on another Jump Ring (JR504). Take the wire ends around and back through the crimp tube. Pull the crimp tube fairly snug against the jump rings and crimp with your crimping pliers (PL125).

7) Make a chain with six of the Jump Rings (JR504) and attach it to the Jump Ring used in step #5.

To Finish.
8) Take the last two Jump Rings (JR504) and make a chain with those, attaching to the Jump Ring on the other end of the necklace. Open the last Jump Ring on this end enough to slip on the Lobster Clasp (CL144). Close the jump ring completely and double check all of your connections. Voila!!
