By following the instructions below, you will make one earring. Repeat all instructions to make the second earring.
  1. Begin by cutting your gemstone chain so that you have a length that is 2 inches long with intact loops on each end.
  2. Open the loop at the base of your earring hook (the same way you would open a jump ring) and link onto this one end of your cut gemstone chain. Close the loop back up.
  3. On the other end of your cut gemstone chain, open and link a jump ring. Before closing the jump ring, also link onto it your chalcedony drop. Close the jump ring.
  4. All done!
