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 24" long. For a necklace that is shorter or longer, simply adjust the chain length.
  1. Begin by opening up a gold plated jump ring using your chain nose pliers and sliding it onto the last link from one side of your 22" long gold plated rolo chain. Close the jump ring back up.
  2. Next, open up another jump ring and slide it onto the last link from the other side of your chain length. Before closing, add on the loop from your matte gold plated lobster clasp and close.
  3. Next, take your Nunn Designs starfish stamping and onto the back side, add a thin layer of E-6000 glue. Place your stamping, glue side down, onto the front side of your Nunn Design antiqued gold pewter circle tag. Try to center the stamping as much as possible without covering up the hole on the circle tag. Set aside to dry for a few minutes.
  4. Using your chain nose pliers, open up another jump ring and slide it through the hole on your circle tag and also through your chain and close.
  5. You're done!
