Thread a 4mm metallic light gold bicone bead, a rhodium plated bead aligner, a metallic light gold crystal BeCharmed pave spike barrel bead, another bead aligner, and another bicone bead onto a silver plated 2", 22 gauge head pin. Make sure that the ends of the bead aligners are sitting inside the BeCharmed bead.
Create a wrapped wire loop after the last bicone bead.
Cut a 1" length of sterling silver 2mm flat cable chain.
Use a 3mm sterling silver jump ring to hang the beaded piece from one end of the chain. Use a second jump ring to hang the other end of the chain from a sterling silver shepherd crook earring.
