Retired - Lava Bauble Statement Necklace

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.

1. String one Czech Druk bead onto one headpin. Make a simple wire loop. Set aside. Repeat this step 47 more times.
2. Now that you have all of your "baubles" made, find the center of the 24 inch chain. Begin to attach each bauble to the chain by opening the simple wire loops, the same as you would a jump ring, and add it to one link in the chain.
3. You will continue to add all the baubles to the chain. Add them equally around the center of the chain. Add two to three to each link in the chain alternating sides.
4. Once you have added all the baubles, move to one end of the chain and attach one jump ring to the last link.
5. Move to the other end of the chain and open one jump ring and a lobster clasp. Attach it to the last link in the chain. Close the jump ring.
6. All done!
