How to make it

Bead necklace

Start by threading a pinch bead onto a piece of nylon wire, and pinch it shut. Then bend a bead tip over it and squeeze this shut as well. Then thread the beads onto the nylon thread. When you get to the middle part of the necklace, use 6 Miyuki Delica beads in a row. Once you have threaded them on, you can thread the heart charm of Amazonite over them. Then thread the beads in the same way as the first piece and finish the necklace again with a bead tip, lobster clasp and extension chain.

Chain necklace

First, cut off 6 equal pieces from your link chain. Then make your own spacers, which is clearly explained in the video below. When you have made them, attach them between 2 pieces of chain. At the end you finish this chain with a lobster clasp.

Earring

With these earrings, you only have to bend open the bottom ring of the earring and hang the Amazonite pendant in there, and then bend it closed again.
