Begin by cutting a length of chain that is 1.5 inches in length. Note: You can cut it to your desired length if you prefer a longer or shorter drop.
Open one jump ring and attach it to one coin pendant and one end of the chain. Close the jump ring.
Open the loop of the earring hook, same as you would a jump ring, and attach it to the other end of the chain. Make sure the rolo chain is sitting perpendicular to so that the earring sits correctly. See photo for reference. Close the loop.
