This design is a great way to use up scraps of chain. You can form the base with whatever round beads you'd like to use.
It's fun to mix design elements together in unique ways when creating jewelry. Cynthia used scraps of chain as fun dangles between pristine pearls in her necklace. The silvery chain and crystal pearls in White create a cool winter look full of striking style. You can use any chain you may have leftover from previous projects to make this look your own
1 1/2 inches of the antique silver-plated leaf chain
Another 1 1/2 inches of the flat oval cable chain
When you have your chain lengths picked out, attach a 5mm antique silver-plated 18 gauge open jump ring to the end of each one.
Cut a length of jewelry wire approximately 18 inches long. Attach a sterling silver 6.10mm open jump ring to half of the JBB antique silver-plated pewter flower toggle clasp and crimp the end of the strand to the jump ring using a sterling silver 2x2mm crimp tube and a sterling silver 3mm crimp cover.
Add 17 8mm White round pearls to the jewelry wire. Add a 10mm White round pearl to the strand followed by a length of chain, using the jump ring on the end of the chain length to add it to the strand. Repeat this pattern of a 10mm pearl and a chain length eight times and then add another 10mm pearl. Finish the strand with 17 more 8mm pearls.
Attach another sterling silver jump ring to the other half of the clasp and attach the end of the strand to the jump ring using a crimp tube and cover.
