The chain used in this project measures 24 inches. If you'd like your necklace to be longer or shorter, simply adjust your chain length.
  1. Using your chain nose pliers, open one gun metal plated jump ring and slide it onto the link at the end of one side of your 24 inch length chain and close.
  2. Repeat this step on the other end of your chain length and add on another jump ring. Before closing, also slide on the loop from your gun metal lobster clasp and close.
  3. Next, onto a gunmetal head pin slide on one gun metal corrugated bead cap, followed by your Austrian crystal skull bead and another corrugated bead cap.
  4. Then thread your head pin through the too hole on your Austrian crystal Thread Pave Bead Frame Ring. Using your round nose pliers create a wrapped wire loop and snip off any excess wire with your flush cutters.
  5. Using your chain nose pliers, open another gun metal jump ring and slide it through your wrapped wire loop and also the center point of your chain and close.
  6. All done!
