Both elegant and vibrant, this necklace is reminiscent of flowers that have been covered with a spring shower. The combination of CRYSTALLIZED™ pearls and crystals with silver components makes this the perfect accent for a warm spring evening.
Step one: Attach one silver-plated aqua 1-ring channel to a silver-plated crystal 2-ring channel using a 4.30mm open jump ring. Use another 4.30mm jump ring to attach these linked channels to the middle loop of the sterling silver contemporary floral chandelier. Attach another silver-plated aqua channel to each of the outer loops of the floral chandelier using 4.30mm jump rings. Set this aside.
Step two: Cut a length of ZambaPro 49 .019 jewelry wire to approximately 25 inches. Using a 2x2mm crimp tube and a 5.8mm open jump ring, crimp one end of the wire to the bar end of the star-shaped flower toggle. For help with crimp tubes please visit the Handy Tips section in the Learning Center.
Step three: String 33 6mm CRYSTALLIZED™ - Swarovski Elements white pearls, followed by three antique silver flower rondelles, five more white pearls, one 4mm aqua faceted round and another white pearl. Attach the floral chandelier using a 9.0mm sterling silver open jump ring.
Step four: Reverse this pattern starting with the white CRYSTALLIZED™ pearl and aqua faceted round, and work your way toward the side of the necklace.
Step five: Finish by crimping the other end of the wire to the remaining part of your toggle using a 5.8mm open jump ring.
