1. Cut the following lengths of chain: cut two pieces at six inches long, two pieces at nine inches long, one at an inch and a half, one at two and a half inches long, and one at three and a half inches long.
2. Add an oval jump ring to each of the four loops on the antiqued silver art deco stamping. To each of the two top (vertical) jump rings, add one six inch piece of chain and one nine inch piece of chain. Close these jump rings again.
3. Create two short chains by linking together four (per chain) oval jump rings. Link one end of each jump ring chain to one end of each set of six and nine inch long chains.
4. Onto three head pins, thread a single Czech cathedral bead each. Create a simple loop on each head pin and trim off excess wire.
5. Open the loop on one of the head pin dangles and add it to the end of one of the jump ring chains, then close the loop again. Open the last jump ring on the other jump ring chain and add a lobster clasp. Close this jump ring again.
6. To the two jump rings at the bottom of the stamping, add both ends of the three short pieces of chain. Add the last two head pin dangles to the jump rings before closing once more.
