  3. Cut off a length of four links of gun metal chain.
  4. Open one oval jump ring and attach it to the loop of the earring finding and attach it to the length of gun metal chain.
  5. Attach the top loop of the eye pin with the large hole bead on it to the other end of the chain. Close the loop.
  6. Move to the other side of this eye pin and attach one oval jump ring.
  7. Take one 6mm round jump ring and attach it to the cross pendant and to the last oval jump ring you just added and you're all done!
