Directions:  
For our example we used 23 gold foil beads and the length is approximately 26" long.  Your necklace will vary with the different sized beads you use.   
Step 1 - Eye Pins 
Onto an eye pin, place a 4mm G/P Round, a Gold Foil Bead, and another 4mm G/P Round.  Using a wire cutter, cut off the excess eye pin leaving approximately 3/16". Using a flat nose pliers, bend the 3/16" piece of wire 90°. Carefully bend the 3/16" piece of wire into a loop, and close it tight.  Make as many of these link pieces as you will need for the project.

Step 2 - Linking Eye Pins 
Next, open a jump ring and insert two of your link pieces you made above.  Continue to open jump rings and add them to you piece of jewelry until you have the desired length.

Step 3 - Clasp 
When your necklace is the length you want it, use two more jump rings to attach your necklace to your toggle clasp.

Enjoy!
