Materials:
1 Pkg. Metallic Bronze Pony Beads, 6/0 (#17301) Qty:
1 Pkg. Black Genya (#49010) Qty:
1 Pkg. S/P Jump Rings, 4mm (#50040) Qty:
1 Pkg. S/P Large Crimp Beads (#50050) Qty:
1 Pkg. S/P Spring Ring Clasp (#50142) Qty:
2          S/P Oval Drop Charms (#60101) Qty:

Directions: Cut 5 pieces of Genya, 25 inches each.
Step 1: With all 5 strands of Genya held together evenly at on end, measure 2 inches and tie a knot using all 5 strands. On each piece of Genya, string a
Crimp Bead and then string the Genya back through the Crimp Bead. Crush each Crimp Bead, but stagger the crimps so that each strand has a crimp in a different place, creating different size loops. The longest loop should be no more than 1 inch.
Step 2: String 1 Pony Bead on each strand. Measure 2 1/2 inches and tie another knot in all 5 strands. The Pony Beads should "float" in the strands.
Step 3: String 2 Pony Beads on each strand, bunch them all together and tie a knot.
Step 4: Repeat Steps 2 and 3, respectively 2 more times.
Step 5: Repeat Step 2.

Step 6: On each piece of Genya, string a Crimp Bead and then string the Genya back through the Crimp Bead. Crush each crimp bead, but stagger the crimps so that each strand has a crimp in a different place, creating different size loops. The longest loop should be no more than 1 inch.
Step 7: Cut two 1 inch pieces of Genya. Thread a piece through the loops of Genya at one end of the necklace and through the large hole in one of the Drop Charms. Place a Crimp Bead over the two ends of Genya and crush the Crimp Bead. Cut off the excess. Repeat at the other end of the necklace.
Step 8: Twist open a Jump Ring and place it through the small loop of the Drop Charm and through the small loop of the Spring Ring Clasp. Twist closed.
Step 9: Twist open the Jump Ring that is part of the Clasp and place it through the small loop of the Drop Charm at the other end of the necklace. Twist closed. Enjoy!
