I made this necklace a little while ago with the idea that it would go perfect with a dress for new years eve. But it is also a great everyday necklace.
- Two chevron (V-shaped) beads
- Long chain
- Chain Tassel
- Two jump rings
- Jewelery wire
- Wire cutters
- Round nose pliers
- Needle or chain nose pliers
Cut a length of wire and string both beads onto it.
Use the round nose pliers to create wrapped loops on both sides of the beads. The top one is a little bit tricky, but possible.
Attach the chain tassel to the bottom loop with a jump ring. If you do not have a chain tassel do not fret. A way to make one is to just string short chains onto a jump ring.
Measure the chain around your neck and cut to your desired length. Attach the ends of the chain to the top loop with a jump ring. I decided not to add a clasp to this necklace because it is so long and I can just slip it over my head. But if you do want to add a clasp: cut your measured chain in half and add the clasp components to the ends.
Another version.
I made this tassel from little scraps of chain and a jump ring.
