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.

This necklace measures approximately 30 inches. To modify the length, simply adjust the length of chain on both sides respectively.
  1. Begin by taking one eye pin and stringing on one pearl. Make a simple wire loop. Repeat this process to make 47 total links.
  2. By opening and closing the loops, same as you would a jump ring, attach together the following lengths: 2, 4, 6 and 35. Set these aside.
  3. On to the 2, 4 and 6 links, open the bottom loop and attach one channel charm to the end. Close the loop.
  4. Using the Smart Setter, set the chatons into their settings.
  5. Then cut the chain into the following lengths: 1 inch, 1.5 inches and 14 inches.
  6. On to the lengths of 1 inch and 1.5 inches, open a jump ring and attach the loop of the chaton setting and to the end of the chains. Close the ump ring.
  7. Next, take the open frame circle and attach the bottom components to it. Using jump rings, attach one length of 4 pearl link with the channel charm on the end, then 1 inch of chain with the chaton, one length of 6 pearl link with the channel charm on the end, then 1.5 inch of chain with the chaton, and then attach one length of 2 pearl link with the channel charm on the end.
  8. Attach the length of 35 pearl link to the top side of the circle frame with a jump ring. Then attach the 14 inches of chain to the other side with a jump ring.
  9. Move to the end of the long pearl length, and attach one jump ring and one lobster clasp. To the other side of the chain attach one jump ring.
