Necklace directions:
Step 1. Onto each of 4 Eye Pins, place
a Stardust Round.
Step 2. Using Flat Nose Pliers, bend the excess
wire on each Eye Pin 90°. Using a Side Cutter, cut off the excess from
each Eye Pin leaving approximately 3/16.” Make a loop with the excess
wires, using Round Nose Pliers, and close tightly. Set aside.
Step 3. Onto each of 6 Eye Pins, place
a Pearl. Repeat Step 2. (Note: 2 of these will be leftover
for the earrings)
Step 4. Onto each of 2 Eye Pins, place
a 6mm Crystal. Repeat Step 2.
Step 5. Onto a Head Pin, place a 6mm Crystal.
Repeat Step 2.
Step 6. Onto a Head Pin, place an 8mm Crystal.
Repeat Step 2.
Step 7. Onto an Eye Pin, place a Rhodocrosite
Gemstone. Repeat Step 2.
(Following are the steps to the Dangle)
Step 8. Twist open a 4mm Jump Ring with
Flat Nose Pliers. Insert the Jump Ring into a loop of one of the
Eye Pins with a 6mm Crystal AND onto one of the Small Square Hammertone
Links. Twist the Jump Ring closed with the same Pliers.
Step 9. Twist open a 6mm Jump Ring and
insert the bottom of the attached Square Hammertone Link and the Head Pin
with the 8mm Crystal. Twist the Jump Ring closed and set aside.
Step 10. Twist open a 4mm Jump Ring and
insert the Jump Ring into a loop of one of the Eye Pins with a 6mm Crystal
AND onto one end of the Solid Diamond Hammertone Link. Twist the
Jump Ring closed.
Step 11. Twist open a 4mm Jump Ring and
insert the other end of the Solid Diamond Hammertone Link and one end of
the Eye Pin containing the Rhodocrosite Gemstone. Twist the Jump
Ring closed.
Step 12. Twist open a 4mm Jump Ring and
insert the other end of the Eye Pin with the Gemstone and the Large Teardrop
Hammertone Link. Twist the Jump Ring closed and set aside.

Onto this Jump Ring you will place the 3 components to complete your Dangle.
Take Component 1, which was set aside in Step 8, Component 2, which was
set aside in Step 11, and Component 3, which was set aside in Step 12.
Components 1 and 2 go onto the Jump Ring through the Eye Pins and Component
3 goes onto the Jump Ring through the Link. Twist the Jump Ring closed.
Set aside.
(Dangle Complete)
Step 15. Take your Oval and Round Link
Chain and double it so that it is in equal halves, but do not cut the Chain
(Note: the purpose for this is so that the Necklace comes out evenly).
Step 16. At the middle/bottom of your Chain
should be a larger oval of the Chain. To this Oval, attach a 4mm
Jump Ring by twisting the Jump Ring open with Flat Nose Pliers, inserting
the Oval, and twisting the Jump Ring closed with the same pliers.
Step 17. Twist open a 6mm Jump Ring and
insert one end of a Large Hammertone Rectangle link and the, already attached,
4mm Jump Ring. Twist the 6mm Jump Ring closed.
Step 18. Twist open a 6mm Jump Ring and
insert it into the bottom of the attached Rectangle link and the 6mm Jump
Ring with the Dangle Components. Twist the Jump Ring closed.
(Now onto the Chain)
Step 19. On one of the equal halves of
your Chain, count past 2 Large Ovals of the Chain (not counting the one
that the Dangle is attached to) to, what will be, the 3rd Smaller, Round
Link (this measure about 2 ¼”). Using Side Cutters, cut the
Smaller, Round Link off.
Step 20. Take one of your Eye Pins with
a Pearl. Twist open one end of the Eye Pin and insert the Chain (the
piece of Chain that you are inserting should be shaped like an 8).
Close the Eye Pin.
Step 21. Twist the other end of the Eye
Pin open and insert the end of the Chain where it has just been cut.
Twist the Eye Pin closed.
Step 22. Count past one Large Oval of the
Chain to the next Small, Round Link and cut the Round Link off.
Step 23. Repeat Steps 21 and 22 with a
Stardust Round.
Step 24. Repeat Step 23.
Step 25. Repeat Step 21 with a Stardust
Round.
Step 26. Twist open one end of an Eye Pin
with a Pearl and insert it into the Eye Pin with the Stardust Round that
you just attached. Twist the Eye Pin closed.
Step 27. Twist open the other end of the
Eye Pin with the Pearl and insert the remaining half of your Chain.
(Now for the 2nd and final half of your Chain)
Step 28. Count past one Large Oval of the
Chain (again, this is not including the Large Oval Link that the Dangle
is attached to) to the next Small, Round Link and cut the Round Link off.
Step 29. Repeat Step 21 and 22 with a Stardust
Round
Step 30. Cut off the next, Larger Oval
of the Chain.
Step 31. Repeat Steps 21 and 22.
Step 32. Count past 2 Large Ovals of the Chain
to, what will be, the 2nd Smaller, Round Link (this will measure slightly
less than 2”). Using Side Cutters, cut the Smaller, Round Link off.
Step 33. Repeat Steps 26-28.
Step 34. You have another Chain, the Figaro
Twist Chain. You may use this to make the Necklace however long or
short you would like it. Cut your desired length of Chain.
Step 35. Fold the Chain, that you just
cut, into equal halves and attach one end to an end of your finished Oval
and Round Link Chain with a 4mm Jump Ring.
Step 36. Attach the other end of the Figaro
Twist Chain to the remaining end of the Oval and Round Chain with a 4mm
Jump Ring.
Step 37. Measure the Figaro Chain that
you just attached. At the halfway point, cut off a figure 8 from
the Chain.
Step 38. Twist open a 4mm Jump Ring and
attach the Lobster Clasp to one end of the Chain.
Step 39. On the opposite end of the Chain
attach a 6mm Jump Ring that goes with the Lobster Clasp.
Earring directions:
Step 1. Using a 4mm Jump Ring, attach one
of the remaining Eye Pins containing a Pearl to one end of a Large Oval
Hammered Link.
Step 2. Using a 4mm Jump Ring, attach a
Small Square Hammered Link to the other end of the Eye Pin containing the
Pearl.
Step 3. Attach a 6mm Jump Ring to the other
end of the Small Square Hammered Link.
Step 4. Attach a 4mm Jump Ring to the 6mm.
