Close the jump ring. Open and link another jump ring to another Austrian crystal 10mm heart in Amethyst and a midway chain link on a second necklace extender. Close the jump ring.Open a 3rd jump ring and link it to another Austrian crystal 10mm heart in Amethyst and an upper chain link on a third necklace extender. Close the jump ring. Finally, open a fourth jump ring and link it to the top chain links on all three of your necklace extenders with hearts attached (the end opposite the metal hearts). Now link that jump ring through the hole at the top of the bent tip of the gold plated metal bookmark. Close the jump ring.
