For this project you will need:

Mother-of-pearl beads
Pendants and natural beads
Headpins
3mm rings
Metal beads
Diamond chain
Metal beads
Silk thread
A clasp
Extension chain

Step 1:

This tutorial is very simple to do. To start, cut a piece of diamond chain about 6cm. Keep the equivalent of 11 diamond links.

Mount the different natural stone beads on headpins and form the loops.

Attach the beads and pendant on the diamond chain starting from the center. For the pendant you will need a small 3mm ring to connect the pendant to the chain. For the beads you will open the loop created to attach them to the chain.

Here we spaced the different elements by one link.

Then tie the silk thread on one end of the chain, make double knots by passing twice through the loop before tightening the knot. To secure the knot you can place a small drop of glue.

String a metal bead then the mother-of-pearl beads to the length of your choice.

Then tie a knot with the thread on the clasp ring, making sure to keep some flexibility on the bead string.

Tip: To place the knot in the right spot, pierce a needle into the thread at the edge of the last bead, tie your knot, this way the thread won't move and your knot will be placed correctly..

To finish, repeat the operation, thread and string the beads... Attach the thread to an extension chain.

And there you go! Beautiful creation!
