You Will Need (8 things)

  • 15 x 28X11 Jade Faceted Drop Citrus Green Bead
  • 5 x 40X30 Bronze Jewellery Settings
  • 25 x 8X5 Cobalt Blue Acrylic Faceted Rondelle

Steps (7 steps, 60 minutes)

  1. 1

    {Step 1}: Glue your cabochons to the bronze setting.

  2. 2

    {Step 2}: Put your eye pins through your cobalt beads. Trim the ends down so they are 10mm. Then,use your pliers to round the end, forming a loop.

  3. 3

    {Step 3}: Put your head pins through your jade beads. Trim the ends down so they are 9mm. Then, use your pliers to round the end, forming a loop. Hook the loop on the bottom loop of your cobalt bead.

  4. 4

    {Step 4}: Count 4 holes down from the side of your setting. Open the top loop of your cobalt bead, hook it through the hole in your setting, and close the loop. Skip a hole, then add another bead. Keep skipping and adding beads until you have 5 beads connected. Repeat all steps for your other settings.

  5. 5

    {Step 5}: Open your jump rings and connect them to the third hole from the center of your settings. Connect all of your settings together.

  6. 6

    {Step 6}: Put a jump ring in the third hole from the center of your end settings. Slide your chain on your two open jump rings and connect. I made my chain long enough so I didn't need to add a clasp. I can just slip my necklace over my head!
