Crystal pearls provide magical hints of color on thin leather cord from Leather Cord USA, while the sterling silver chandelier is decorated with sweet charms. Learn how to make this necklace and then check out other ideas for chandeliers in this Artbeads Cafe episode.
Cut off the inner two loops of the sterling silver filigree 2-layer crescent chandelier. File down any rough edges. Attach a sterling silver small double sided wing charm to an outer loop on the bottom layer using a sterling silver 3.80mm open jump ring. Attach another wing charm to the other outer loop using a 3.80mm jump ring. Attach the sterling silver square heart charm to the center loop on the bottom layer using a 3.80mm jump ring. Set aside for now.

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!
