Directions:
Step 1: First, we'll assemble the center dangle. Onto an
eye pin, place 1 S/P Round, 1 Ruby Heart, 1 S/P Round, 1 Pink Heart, 1
S/P Round, 1 Ruby Heart, and 1 S/P Round. Using a wire cutter, cut
off the excess eye pin leaving approximately 3/16". Using flat nose pliers,
bend the 3/16" piece of wire 90°. Using a round nose pliers bend the
3/16" piece of wire into a loop.
Step 2: Onto a head pin, place 1 S/P Round, 1 Ruby Heart, 1 S/P
Round, 1 Pink Heart, 1 S/P Round. Finish by making a loop as described
in step one. Repeat for a total of two dangles.
Step 3: Open a jump ring and insert all three pieces from Steps
1 and 2 and close jump ring.
Step 4: Onto a head pin place 1 S/P Round, 1 Ruby Heart, 1 S/P
Round. Finish by making a loop. Repeat for a total of two head
pins. Repeat one more time, but with a pink heart.
Step 5: Open the end of the large eye pin section from Step 1
(the end without the jump ring) and insert all three head pins from Step
4 and close. Your center dangle is now completed...just put to the
side for now.
Step 5: Cut a 20" piece of Softflex. String one crimp bead, create
a loop through one end of the toggle clasp and back through the crimp bead,
crush the crimp bead. Cut the tail.
Step 6: Onto the Soft Flex, string (through the top of the heart)
1 Ruby Heart, 1 S/P Round, 1 Pink Heart, 1 S/P Round. Repeat a total
of 12 times. String on 1 Ruby Heart, your center dangle through the
jump ring. String on 1 Pink Heart through the bottom (all hearts
will now be strung through the bottom). String on 1 S/P Round, 1
Ruby Heart, 1 S/P Round, and 1 Pink Heart, 1 S/P Round. Repeat a
total of 12 times.
Step 7: String your Soft Flex through a crimp bead and the opposite
end of the toggle clasp. Loop back through the crimp bead and crush.
Step 8: Open a jump ring and insert the Made with Love charm.
Loop jump ring into the end of the round section of the toggle clasp and
close the jump ring.
Step 9: Put on your new necklace and enjoy! |
