A rich cache of faceted nugget charms by Nunn Design are graduated along antiqued silver cable chain in this flattering mixed metal necklace.

Instructions

These instructions will make a 17 inch necklace. To adjust the size, choose your desired length of chain.

Begin by using flush cutters to cut 15.5 inches of 3mm cable chain.
Use pliers to open a 4mm jump ring, and attach the loop of your 13mm copper charm to the centermost link of your cable chain. Close the jump ring.
Open another jump ring, and attach one 9mm silver charm onto your chain, six links to one side of your copper charm. Close the jump ring. Repeat this step to hang another silver charm on the opposite side of your necklace.
Repeat the above step, this time attaching two 6mm gold charms, spaced six links from each of your silver charms.
Now open another jump ring, and attach the loop of your lobster clasp onto one end of your necklace. Close the jump ring. Open one more jump ring, and attach it to the the opposite end of your necklace. Close the jump ring.
Enjoy!
