Cut a length of 20 gauge Vintage Bronze Artbeads Designer Wire approximately six inches long. Slide a Dakota Stones purple impression jasper and bronzite ladder pendant onto the wire and make a messy wrapped loop at the top of the pendant.

Nice choice! All or most of the products needed for this project are shown below with quantities. Sometimes we sell out of components and aren’t able to order more from the manufacturer (we know, it is very disappointing to us, too). Use the opportunity to mix up the design and make it yours by substituting similar products or altering the entire color scheme—it’s up to you!
