Straight off the catwalk, delicate and dainty is trending right now! Basic instructions:We have made this necklace quite short, at about 40cm. However you can make it longer or shorter to suit. 1. Cut you chain to approx. 40cm and attach a lobster clasp to the end using oval jump rings. 2. Make the dangles using ball headpins and a 2mm spacer above the bead. Attach the dangles to chain leaving 3 links of chain between each.3. Take the 0.3mm tigertail and attach a clamshell & crimp to one end. Thread on approx. 250 2mm silver spacers. You will want to adjust this to the length of the chain, so just keep threading until it is the right length, slightly shorter than the chain. Once it’s the right length, attach another clamshell and crimp.4. Attach the 2mm silver beaded section to the oval jump rings.
