1. Cut a 24 inch length of beading wire and place a bead stopper 4 inches from one end.
2. String onto your beading wire 1 crimp tube.
3. Next string 1 Austrian crystal 10mm white baroque pearl and 1 Austrian crystal 6mm round mini bead in crystal golden shadow. Repeat this step 2 more times.
4. Next string 1 Austrian crystal 12mm white baroque pearl and 1 Austrian crystal 6mm round mini bead in crystal golden shadow. Repeat this step 3 more times.
5. Next string 1 Austrian crystal 14mm white baroque pearl and 1 Austrian crystal 6mm round mini bead in crystal golden shadow. Repeat this step 2 more times.
6. String 1 Austrian crystal 14mm white baroque pearl. This is the middle point of your necklace, now string your remaining beads so that the second half of your necklace is a mirror image of the first. See the photo for help.
7. Take your beading wire and thread it through the loop on one side of your clasp. Bring the wire back around and down through the crimp bead and several beads adjacent to it. Crimp the crimp bead and snip off excess wire with flush cutters. Take a crimp bead cover and place it over the top of the crimp bead. Secure into place with chain nose pliers.
8. Go to the other side of your necklace, remove the bead stopper, and repeat the previous step.
9. Enjoy!
