Instructions

Note: Components and tools listed within this INSTRUCTIONS box and the printer-friendly PDF, if available, may have been discontinued since this project was published. Refer to the PURCHASE COMPONENTS and TOOLS AND OTHER SUPPLIES sections for current availability.

In addition to the materials listed above, you will also need a scrap of wire or a toothpick for this project.These instructions will make an 18 inch necklace. For a longer or shorter necklace, adjust the length of chain on both sides.
  1. Take the Austrian crystal crystal skull flatback and place a dab of E6000 glue on the back in the middle. Glue the flatback to the center of the banner stamping blank, aligning the cheekbones of the skull with the curved bottom of the blank.
  2. Place a dab of glue on the back of one framed round flatback, and glue it to the right of the skull, lined up with the eye. Place a dab of glue on another framed round flatback, and glue it to the upper right of the first one, next to the hole on the right side of the stamping blank.
  3. Repeat step 2 to glue two flatbacks on the left side of the skull. See the photo for reference. Let the glue dry for 24 hours.
  4. Using flush cutters, cut two 9 inch lengths of gunmetal chain.
  5. Open an oval jump ring. Slide it through the first link of one piece of chain and also slide it through the hole on the right side of the stamping blank pendant. Close the jump ring.
  6. Open another jump ring. Slide it through the first link of the second piece of chain and also slide it through the hole on the left side of the stamping blank pendant. Close the jump ring.
  7. Open another jump ring. Slide it through the last link of chain on one side of the necklace, and also slide on the loop of your clasp. Close the jump ring.
  8. Open another jump ring. Slide it through the last link of chain on the other side of the necklace. Close the jump ring.
  9. Enjoy your necklace!
