Designer: Karlin Jones
Skill Level: Beginner
Add a sprinkling of silver Crystaletts spike buttons onto silver bar chain and create a necklace that is subtle yet a little edgy.
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.

This necklace measures 18 inches long. For a necklace that is longer or shorter, simply adjust the chain length.
  1. Begin by cutting an 18" length of chain with your flush cutters. Remember to leave the small connecting jump rings (that come in between each bar link) still in tact on either end of your chain.
  2. Next, using your chain nose pliers, open the last jump ring on one end of your chain length. Attach the loop of your silver plated clasp and close.
  3. Lay your chain length flat on your work place. Using your chain nose pliers, open a 4mm silver plated jump ring, slide on the loop from one silver spike button and attach it onto the small jump ring that is in between the bar links at the center point of your chain.
  4. Repeat this process, attaching a total of 20 silver spike beads via their open jump rings and close.
  5. Close your clasp (onto the last jump ring on the other side of chain) & you're done!
