- To begin this project, we will start by texturizing the Vintaj Natural Brass Arrows.
- Now using a metal hole punch, punch a hole into the pointed side of the arrow, approximately 1/2 cm from the tip of the point.
- Then measure the chain. Cut the chain into a 9" piece and a 15" piece. However you may make the necklace to your desired length, just keep in mind to have one shorter piece and one longer piece.
- Open a jump ring and attach it to one of the holes in one side of arrow. Attach it to one of the ends of the chain. Close the jump ring.
- To achieve this design, make sure the arrows are pointing as though they are going the same direction around the circle of the chain. So that when you are wearing it, one is pointed down and the other is pointed up. Also keep in mind, when attaching the arrows, to use the front side that you texturized.
- Using the jump rings, finish attaching the arrows by opening and closing the jump rings onto the chain.
