I love coming up with new designs for seed beads, and I especially love all of the new colors we just received! For this design, I paired pink, white, and gold tones with this Agate coin pendant for a unique layered necklace.
Follow the attached tip for how to wire wrap a bail onto a pendant. Next, slide 13 gold 11/0 seed beads onto a headpin to make a bead charm. Use a jump ring to attach the charm to the wire loop on the pendant.

For the chain, use 24 gauge wire & seed beads to make bead links. Attach the links directly to one another until you've reached your desired length. I made two 11" pieces of bead chain, and then attached each end to the gemstone pendant with jump rings (or attach the link directly to the pendant).

For the seed bead pendant necklace, you'll need 13 head pins. On the first headpin (which will be the one in the center), slide on 8 pink, 2 gold, 2 transparent rainbow light topaz, 2 more gold, and 7 opaque rainbow white 11/0 seed beads. The six headpins to the left & right will be the same, except reduce the opaque white seed bead by one each time. Next, make a bead link with a 20 gauge piece of wire. Slide on the headpins in the order shown in the picture, with each separated by an 8/0 seed bead. Use jump rings to attach your desired length of chain to each end of the link (I used two 7" pieces of chain). Lastly, I placed small drops of super glue in between the drops so they don't move around.
