Do It Yourself Kit

Step 1: Put Beads through Eye Pin

Start by taking the eye pin and your desired chip gemstone beads. Align the hole from the chip beads through the eye beads, stacking them on top of eachother. The amount will depend on the size of your beads - we used 6 beads.

Step 2: Make a Loop

Use your wire cutters to snip off the excess of the eye pin, leaving approximately 10mm. Use your pliers to create a loop at the end of the stack of beads. Take your time here and make sure the loop is closed.

Step 3: Attach the Charm

Grab one of your jump rings and, if they're not already, open them using the ring tool. Put the loop of the chip beads through the jump ring, and put the loop of the charm through it as well. We are using a feather charm.

Step 4: Attach the Chain

Take the last link in the chain and thread it onto the jump ring. Stacking multiple items onto a jump ring can be cumbersome, so take your time!

Step 5: Close the Jump Ring

Use your ring tool to close the jump ring, making sure both sides line up together.

Step 6: Attach the Closed Jump Ring

Take another jump ring and attach it to the other end of the chain. Before closing the jump ring, add in the closed jump ring.

Step 7: Put the Chip Beads through the Jump Ring

Carefully put the end of the chain with the chip beads and the feather charm through the textured jump ring - and voila! You have now made a beautiful gemstone necklace.
