These instructions will make a finished necklace just over 16". To lengthen or shorten the bracelet, simply adjust the length of the chain.
- Slide the teardrop pearl (larger side first) on to the Headpin. Create a simple wire loop. Set aside.
- Cut the chain to 16" using your wire cutters.
- Open the jump ring and link it on to the center point of the chain (8"). Link it into one of the larger oval loops of the chain.
- Link the sea glass on to that same jump ring. Be sure that the curve of the sea glass is facing away from you (as you would wear it.)
- Then link your simple wire looped pearl on the jump ring. Close the jump ring. Now your pearl should be sitting nicely inside the curve of the sea glass.
- Open a jump ring and link it to one of the ends of the chain (Again, using a larger loop of the chain). Close the jump ring.
- Open the small side of the silver hook finding, same as you would a jump ring, and attach it to the other side of the chain (Using a larger loop of the chain).
- Trim any small loops of the chain that may be left over from where you placed the clasp.
- Have fun!
