Instructions

Note: Components and tools listed within this INSTRUCTIONS box and the printer-friendly PDF, if available, may have been discontinued since this project was published. Refer to the PURCHASE COMPONENTS and TOOLS AND OTHER SUPPLIES sections for current availability.

This necklace measures 24 inches without the 2 inch chain extender. To modify the length, simply adjust the number of beads strung and/or the chain extender.

Begin by cutting off 32 inches of beading wire and adding a bead stopper to one end about 4 inches from the end.
Then string on the beads in the following order: 1 gold oval, 1 blue oval, 1 gold oval, 1 blue oval, 1 gold oval, 1 blue oval, 1 gold oval, 1 blue oval, 1 gold oval, 1 blue oval, and 1 gold oval. Then 5 green cubes, 1 gold oval, 1 blue saucer, 1 gold oval, 1 blue saucer, 1 gold oval, 1 blue saucer, 1 gold oval, 1 blue saucer, 1 gold oval, 1 blue saucer, 1 gold oval, 1 blue saucer, 1 gold oval, 1 blue saucer, and 1 gold oval. Then 5 green cubes, 1 gold oval, 1 blue oval, 1 gold oval, 1 blue oval, 1 gold oval, 1 blue oval, 1 gold oval, 1 blue oval, 1 gold oval, 1 blue oval, and 1 gold oval.
String on one crimp tube and thread the wire up and over a wire protector. Add one jump ring before threading the wire back through the crimp tube. Pull until snug and crimp the crimp tube. Trim any excess wire. Add a crimp cover.
Move to the other side of the bracelet and repeat the above step, adding a lobster clasp instead of the jump ring.
Finally, please watch our video: How to Add a Chain Extender onto Strung Jewelry. You will use another jump ring to attach a two inch chain extender to complete the look.
