I just really love to mix enamel chains, the colors make me happy. I personalized this necklace with a freshwater pearl and a stainless letter charm. Personalize your summer necklace and post your ideas.

Supplies you’ll need:

You will need: - 6-7" of teardrop enamel chain - 16" of gold (plated) white small enamel letter charms - 1 freshwater pearl - 1 head pin

Step-by-Step Instructions:

Step

Step 1

Cut the teardrop chain to 6" inches. Cut the jump rings off the last bar. I also took off the middle teardrop, then I can place my large enamel teardrop in place of it.

Step

Step 2

Create a wire loop on your teardrop enamel and feed the wire through the jump ring in the center of the chain. Warp the excess wire around the loop and trim.

Step

Step 3

This is what your teardrop should look like.

Step

Step 4

Now slide the head pin through the pearl and create a loop around the chain. I looped it around the bar next to the large teardrop. Create a wire wrap around the loop and trim.

Step

Step 5

Attached your letter charm with a jump ring.

Step

Step 6

Now you can add jump rings on each end of the teardrop chain. Attach the white enamel chain to the jump ring. I added extra teardrops I had left over from the chain onto the jump rings. You can finish by attaching your clasp.
