I love a layered look, and I especially love the look of paperclip chain, so for this design I layered a few different styles of chain and added in colorful bead links for a light & summer-y inspired necklace.

Supplies you’ll need:

  • Lobster Clasps

Step-by-Step Instructions:

Step 1

Use the wire to make bead links with the gemstones & seed beads. Attach the links throughout your desired lengths of chain (either attach them directly to the chain links or attach with jump rings).
