  1. Begin by watching the video: How to Make a Connector Focal Necklace with Gita Settings.

  3. Repeat the same process described in step 2 to set five dark red ss39 chatons into the remaining prong settings of your cross pendant.
  4. To Hang your pendant: Use flush cutters to cut 17.5 inches of chain. Slide one end of the chain through the top loop of your pendant.
  5. Use pliers to open a jump ring and slide on the end link of one side of your chain. Also slide on the loop of your clasp. Close the jump ring.
  6. Open another jump ring and slide on the end link on the other side of your chain. Close the jump ring. Enjoy!
