Step-by-Step Instructions:
|
Step 1: Begin by making two bead links with the Czech Glass Twisted Pillow bead. See Tip: Make a Wire Wrapped Bead Link |
|
Step 2: Make two more bead links by stringing on three of the 2mm crystal beads, one Sunflower Puff Oval, and three more crystals. |
|
Step 3: To the top of one of the Sunflower bead links, attach a 5 1/2" piece of the cable chain with a jump ring. To the bottom of the link, attach a 2" piece of the Diamond Filigree Chain. To the bottom of the diamond filigree chain, attach the Czech glass bead link with a jump ring. To the bottom of the Czech Glass link, attach the metal filigree chandelier with a jump ring. Repeat these steps for the other side of the necklace. |
|
Step 4: Attach a 3" piece of the labradorite chain from the top hole of one chandelier to the other. On the second hole, attach a 3 1/2" piece of the disc chain. Make a bead link with 13 of the Rainbow Sherbet 4mm beads. Attach a 1/2" piece of chain to the ends. Attach this piece to the second hole as well, underneath the disc chain. |
|
|
Step 5: On the third holes, attach the satellite chain. On there fourth hole attach the turquoise bead chain, and on the bottom hole attach the Radiant Sun & Crystal Chain. |
|
Step 6: Attach the starburst charm anywhere you'd like on the disc chain. Make two bead charms by sliding on a 2mm turquoise crystal bead & a 4mm Czech Glass Rainbow Sherbet bead onto a headpin. Attach to the loop on the inside of the chandelier focal. |
