Instructions:

  1. Start by cutting your silver plated cable donut circle chain so that it is 27 links long. Also cut 2 lengths of silver plated curb chain, 4" long each.

  2. Open a 6mm silver plated jump ring and link one end of your donut circle chain to one end of your cut curb chain lengths. Close the jump ring. Go to the other side of your curb chain and link to it one half of your flower toggle clasp using a 6mm jump ring. Repeat this step on the other side of your donut chain with the other 4" piece of curb chain and the other half of your clasp.

  3. Time to attach the lucite dangles! To do this, you will open a 10mm jump ring, thread it through the hole in the lucite dangle and also link it to the designated donut circle chain link, then close the jump ring.

  4. Counting from one end of your donut circle chain, attach the following dangles:

  5. To the 5th link, attach a faceted teardrop pendant

  6. To the 6th link, attach a faceted teardrop pendant

  7. To the 7th link, attach a faceted teardrop pendant

  8. To the 8th link, attach a large faceted pear drop pendant

  9. To the 9th link, attach a large faceted diamond twist drop pendant

  10. To the 10th link, attach a large faceted pear drop pendant

  11. To the 11th link, attach a large faceted diamond twist drop pendant and a faceted teardrop pendant

  12. To the 12th link, attach a large faceted pear drop pendant

  13. To the 13th link, attach a large faceted diamond twist drop pendant and a faceted teardrop pendant

  14. To the 14th link, attach a large faceted pear drop pendant

  15. The 14th link is the midway point. Now work your way backwards to make the second half of your necklace a mirror image of the first, starting with the 15th link mimicking the 13th, etc..

  16. All done! Enjoy your pretty new necklace.

Tip: Check package quantities for each component. You may have extra material to make more than one finished project, or will have leftovers for other projects. In some cases, adding on just one more package of a component may be all you need to make multiple pieces.
