Step 1:

To start, cut a brass wire about 20cm long.

Then cut 2 pieces of chain about 15cm each. Here we made a 40cm choker necklace. If you want a looser drape, feel free to lengthen the chains.

At one end of the thread, form a loop then insert the chain link. Then wrap the end of the thread around the base of the loop twice to create a wrapped loop.

This allows for a clean and very sturdy assembly. Cut the excess thread flush.

Start stringing the beads by alternating donuts, metal beads, and pendants. Follow the bead order in the photo below.

The size of the strand will be ideal on the neck, neither too long nor too short.

Place the enameled pendant in the center then continue symmetrically... 

Step 2:

Once your strand is finished, form a loop at the edge of the last bead then insert the other piece of chain.

Form a wrapped loop as before. Make sure to create loops that are discreet enough for the delicate assembly.

For a nice drape, shape the bead strand to give it a curved form that will follow your neck.

Then cut a 3cm piece of extension chain.

At the ends of the chains, place the clasp with a ring on one side and the extension chain on the other.
