Make this necklace with Swarovski crystals and a Antique Brass findings.
Recommended Tools: Side Cutters (PL495), Chain Nose Pliers (PL480), Round Nose Pliers (PL482)

Project Instructions:
1) Take the 24" length of chain and open two jump rings with your Chain and Round Nose pliers. Fit both of the jump rings through each of the last links at the end of the chain. Before closing, use one of these jump rings to attach one half of the clasp to the necklace. Close the jump rings completely.

2) Use your Chain Nose pliers to open the bail up slightly, and attach both of the circle heart connectors to the bail (make sure the front of each connector is facing outward). Use your Chain Nose pliers again to open the bail a bit further, if need be, and to flatten the opened tab to the back of the bail.

3) Make a small 1/4" 90 degree bend at the very end of one of the 8" lengths of wire. Slip this hook into the same heart opening that the bail is attached through. Use your Chain Nose pliers to now wrap the wire tail around the underside of the back connector.

4) Go back to the front connector, and thread one Sunflower Bicone onto the wire. Pull the wire through the center hole to the back of the connectors and then thread the end of the wire through the next heart opening in the connector, from the back to the front. Thread on another Sunflower Bicone and then pull the wire through the center hole to the back of the connectors. Repeat this step to attach the rest of the bicones in this order from the two bicones already lashed to the connectors. -- (1) Sunflower Bicone, (2) Hyacinth Bicones, (2) Fire Opal Bicones, (2) Light Siam Bicones, (3) Siam Bicones. -- Now repeat this pattern from the Light Siam Bicones up to finish this pattern. When you near the end of the first 8" of wire, use your Chain Nose pliers to tuck the tail around the underside of the back connector, and attach the new 8" length of wire the same way that you did in step #3 (you will lash the final two Sunflower Bicones to the connectors to finish instead of just the one that is listed in the pattern)

5) With the last bicone attached to the connector, pull the wire through the center hole. Trim off the excess wire and use your Chain Nose pliers to tuck the tail around the underside of the back connector.

6) Slide the decorated bail onto the free end of the chain.

7) Open up five jump rings and find the heart opening that is directly opposite of the heart opening that the bail is attached to. Use the first of the five jump rings to attach one of the larger briolette pendants to this bottom heart opening. Use two more jump rings to attach the other two larger briolette pendants to either side of the previous pendant. Use two more jump rings to attach the two smaller briolette pendants to the outside of the three larger briolettes already attached.

8) Open the remaining two jump rings and use both of these to attach the end link of the free side of the chain to the other half of the magnetic clasp. Double check all connections and wraps - done!
