Step by Step
1
To make the bag charm - Join three drop charms onto lengths of silver chain using jump rings. Attach all three and the large circle element onto a jump ring.
2
Add the small round connector to the same jump ring above.
3
Add a lobster claw clasp at the top using a jump ring.
4
To make the necklace – Repeats the steps for making the bag charm, leaving off the lobster claw clasp.
5
Cut two lengths of black cord to measure 35cm long. Attach pair of ends into the leather connectors by pressing down the edges of the clasp over the cord.
6
Tie a double knot in the centre.
7
Cut silver chain to measure 40cm. Find the centre and use a jump ring to secure the centre of the chain through the knot and through the charm section created in step 4.
8
Lay the necklace flat and ascertain how far along the chain the leather section reaches. Use a jump ring at this point to attach the leather fasteners to the chain on either side.
9
Add a toggle at each end of the chain.
