Project details:

For this long-length necklace, I made links with African batiked bone beads, African brass, green aventurine triangles, and rock crystal. I love the combination of shapes and the unexpected pairing of the green with the black & white beads.

↓ Step-by-step

↓ Buy the supplies

Supplies you’ll need:

African Batiked Bone Rice & Barrel Beads
African Brass Focal Bead
Gold Crystal Faceted Rondelle 3mm
Gold Chain
Green Aventurine Triangle
Rock Crystal Faceted Rounds
Gold 24 Gauge Wire
Lobster Clasp
Jump Rings

Step-by-Step Instructions:

Step 1

Using wire, make a bead link with the brass focal & a mint saucer on each side. On each end I slid on a 3mm crystal bead so the saucer doesn't slide off of the link. Attach the link directly to a piece of chain.

Step 2

Make bead links with the African batiked bone beads, the green aventurine triangles, and the rock crystal. Attach directly to .5"-1" pieces of chain (as shown in the picture) until you've reached your desire length. The necklace I made ended up being about 28" long.
