Swarovski Beads Crystal Necklace: How-To

Why don't you enter the warmer months with this beautiful Swarovski Crystal Necklace to match! Our team at Empire Beads have put together this necklace featuring our Swarovski Crystal beads and Onion Metalised Plastic beads. The necklace is a simple and elegant design, adding colour to your spring time wardrobe.
The materials we have used in this project include 4 different colours of 6mm Swarovski Crystals, Onion Metalised Plastic beads, Jump Rings, Small Barrel Clasp, Eye Pins, Head Pins and Gold Cable Chain.
The first step to creating this stunning piece is to thread a 6mm Swarovski Crystal onto a head pin and using Chain Nose pliers, bend the pin 90 degrees away from you just above the bead. Use Side Cutters to cut the excess pin off and then using Round Nose pliers, create a full circular movement until it creates a closed loop. Repeat this process for all Swarovski Crystals.
Thread a Metalised Plastic bead onto an eye pin and create a loop as described above. Repeat this process for all Metalised Plastic beads.
The next step involves gently opening a jump ring and sliding on 4 Swarovski crystals (one of each of your chosen colours) and 2 lengths of chain. Close the jump ring and repeat this with 5 jump rings. Link together a length of chain and Metalised Plastic bead by gently opening the loop near the bead. Slide on the last loop from the piece of chain and close. Assemble the necklace by linking the beads and chain.
To finish off the necklace, join it together by opening a 5mm jump ring and sliding it onto the free loop of Metalised plastic bead #1 and one loop of the Barrel Clasp. Close the jump ring. Open the remaining jump ring and attach the other Barrel Clasp loop and Metalised Plastic bead #6. Close the Jump Ring and you're done!
This project takes about 30 minutes to make and the only tools required are a pair of Round Nose Pliers, Chain Nose Pliers and Side Cutters. Use Silver Chain to create a different effect! Enjoy wearing this stylish design.
