For this design, I made a focal using this U-Shaped pendant, Abalone Rounds, and a turquoise spike. This is one of my favorite color combinations, and I especially love how each of the Abalone beads are a bit different- it adds another level of uniqueness to the necklace.

Supplies you’ll need:

  • Gold Chain
  • Gold Jump Rings
  • Turquoise Spike Focal
  • Gold 22 Gauge Wire
  • Super Glue
  • Round Nose Pliers
  • Gold U-Shaped Focal
  • Czech glass Rondelles
  • Abalone 4.5mm Rounds

Step-by-Step Instructions:

Step 1

Wrap a piece of wire around the loop at the top of the U-focal.

Step 2

Slide on 5 abalone rounds, the turquoise spike, and 5 more rounds. Loop the wire around the other end. I put a small drop of glue at the base of the turquoise point to keep it from swinging around, but this is optional.

Step 3

Attach the chain to the focal with jump rings. Make links with the Czech glass & abalone & attach directly to the chain- spaced out evenly.
