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.

  1. Begin by cutting a 20 inch length of gold plated beading chain using your flush cutters.
  2. Next, using your chain nose pliers, affix a gold plated crimping bead with loop onto one side of your chain. To do this, crimp the crimp bead just the same as you would a regular one, just make sure to crimp closer to the end without the loop vs. right near the loop.
  3. Next, slide on 8 Bali style rough 22k gold vermeil nugget beads.
  4. Then, crimp a second crimping bead with loop onto the other side of your chain.
  5. Next, using chain nose pliers, open a gold plated 6mm jump ring and slide it onto the loop from one of your crimping beads. Before closing, also slide on the loop from a gold plated lobster clasp and close.
  6. That's it!
