Step by Step

1

Thread a number of eyepins with a selection of the beads listed. I’ve combined pearls with decorative caps, metallic beads, acrylic beads, spacers and seed beads.

2

Space the elements out on your table or bead board in a random fashion and so that you have enough for two strands of different lengths at the bottom of the necklace.

3

Fill the gaps with Kaleidoscope elements, and short sections of decorative and plain chain. Join the parts together using jump rings.

4

Once the two bottom bottom strands are complete, join the two strands to one of the beaded eyepins on one side using a jumpring. Repeat using a Kaleidoscope connector on the other side.

5

Connect the chunky oval link chain to either side so that the necklace is your chosen length. Add a pretty leaf clasp.

When I'm not organising inspiring events at docrafts stockists around the country, or working hard in the docrafts marketing and PR department, I love to spend my time making Jewellery and shopping!
