How to start to design your own jewelry?

Step 1: Make the focal pendant

1. Cut 2 pieces of wire, about 15cm and 30cm long respectively;

2. Take the shorter piece and loop one end with pliers;

3. Thread three safety pins onto the loop on wire;

4. Take the longer wire and loop the end as before;

5. Pass the wire through the safety pins while inserting one pearl bead between each safety pin;

6. Keep adding safety pins and supplying pearl beads between them. When the half part has reached your desired length, stop to make the second piece.

7. Make a smaller loop at end and wrap the leftover wire tails around the last exposed wire. Do the process at all four locations.

Then, you will get two components as below.

Step 2: Add on the chain
