When I saw the amber moon face Czech glass beads, I immediately thought of the sun. The stainless steel sunburst links were the perfect backdrop to give my sun some rays. Turn these horizontal and they could be a cute necklace focal too.

Supplies you’ll need:

  • Czech glass moon face coins in amber ab finish
  • sunburst stainless steel gold
  • Czech glass 4mm rounds
  • 26 gauge wire
  • faceted round gold beads
  • ear wire
  • head pins

Step-by-Step Instructions:

Step

Step 1

Cut 7" of wire, fold it in half. Put the fold over the loop on the link and push it down so it rests on the sunburst.

Step

Step 2

Slide the moon bead on both of the wire ends, push the bead up so it is cenetered on the sunburst.

Step

Step 3

Take the wire tails and criss cross them over the base of the link twice.

Step

Step 4

Twist the wire together on the back tightly.

Step

Step 5

Trim the twisted wire and flatten with your pliers.

Step

Step 6

Slide the 4mm Czech glass bead onto a head pin. Thread the head pin through the bottom loop of the sunburst. Wrap the wire around the base of the link loop and trim the excess wire.

Step

Step 7

Use pliers to open the loop on your ear wire, slide on the sunburst. Slide the gold faceted rounds onto the ear wire.
