1. Begin by cutting a piece of the small, antiqued silver rolo chain which is seventeen links long. Set this aside.
2. Thread six silver plated headpins with a 4mm black diamond Austrian Crystal bicone each. Create a wrapped wire loop on each and trim off excess wire. Set these dangles aside.
3. Thread six gunmetal headpins with a 4mm black diamond Austrian Crystal bicone each. Create a simple wire loop on each and trim off excess wire. Set these dangles aside with the other dangles.
4. Open two black oval jump rings. Thread each jump ring through each end of the antiqued silver rolo chain, and close both jump rings again.
5. Onto the black add-a-bead bar pendant, thread a antiqued silver bead cap, flat side first, and the oval jump ring at one end of your chain segment. Now, thread the bar through the hole in the large Austrian crystal heart pendant.
6. Open the oval jump ring at the opposite end of the chain segment and thread it though the hole on the end or the bar pendant, which is now protruding from the back of the Austrian crystal heart. Close the jump ring again.
7. Open the third oval jump ring and thread it through the middle link of the rolo chain.
8. Thread all of your Austrian crystal bicone dangles onto the jump ring, six on one half, six on the other. Make sure to alternate the dangles on the silver headpins with the dangles on the gunmetal headpins.
9. Finally, thread the jump ring through the last link at each end of the two foot long piece of gunmetal chain. Close the jump ring once more.
