How to make the Swarovski necklace and earring set?

Step 1:  Prepare your supplies

1. Choose a proper-length headpin and a Swarovski crystal bead. String each bead on a headpin and make a simple loop with 6mm of wire. 

2. Trim off the leftovers and do repeat for each bead. Next, remove a ring off from the shorter chunky chain.

Step 2: Make the necklace

1. Take one of the chandelier components and a strand of 0.3mm silver brass wire long enough to fit all your beads onto. Fold the wire in half and pass through the loop on chandelier. Bring the ends together.

2. String all the beads onto the wire to create a strand of dangles. First, thread one bead loop per wire; and then thread both wires through one bead loop.   Finally, secure the dangles onto the wires by twisting the wire ends a couple times.

3. Repeat the same processes until you have no more dangles. Next, once you have reached the desired length for your dangles, you will want to attach the leftover wire tails on the chain link that you cut off on step 1.2. 

4. Trim the excess wires. 

5. Snip the thin chain into several 6cm segments.  Connect 2 or 3 strands into a group with brass wire that you have previously threaded a 10mm faceted round Swarovski bead onto. Repeat until you reach the desired length for your handmade chain.

6. Join both ends of the chain with the dangler and two jumprings. You’ve just finished your necklace.

Step 3: Make the earrings

1. Prepare the dangle pieces as shown below.

2. Attach the dangles and the earring hook onto the chandelier component.

3. Repeat the previous step for the second earring. You now have completed the pair.
