Cupid's Arrow Necklace
About this design:
This is a modern Valentine's Day inspired necklace. I love using the carnelian tiny heart-shaped beads. They have a pretty reddish-orange glow.
What you’ll need: (buy products below)
You will need 17-18" of silver chain, a half strand of gemstone heart beads,1 Nunn design arrow link, a 2" eye pin, and 2 jump rings 3-4mm. Below I listed all gemstone hearts you can use.

Step-by-Step Instructions:
|
Step 1: Just slide on 5 hearts onto the eye pin, loop the top of the eye pin onto the bottom of the arrow and wrap the excess wire around to finish. Use the jump rings to attach to your chain. |
