Instructions

Note: Components and tools listed within this INSTRUCTIONS box and the printer-friendly PDF, if available, may have been discontinued since this project was published. Refer to the PURCHASE COMPONENTS and TOOLS AND OTHER SUPPLIES sections for current availability.

  1. To complete the dream catcher pendant please watch our video: How to Make a Wire Wrapped Dream Catcher Open Frame Pendant. In this video you will see how to do the wire wrapping around the Nunn Design open frame and add a gemstone bead to the center.
  2. Once you have completed the pendant, open one jump ring and find the center of the chain, 12 inches in, attach the loop at the top of the pendant to the center link in the chain. Close the jump ring.
  3. Take one head pin and string on one turquoise bead. Make a simple wire loop. Open this loop, same as you would a jump ring, and attach it to the chain, two links to the left of where the pendant is. Repeat this step once more on this side, moving two links to the left for the second turquoise bead.
  4. Repeat the above step to mirror the placement on the other side of the pendant.
  5. Move to the end of the chain. To one side you will attach one jump ring.
  6. To the other side, open one jump ring and attach one lobster clasp to the end of chain. Close the jump ring.
  7. All done!
