Bejeweled Necklace Tutorial

Created by: Cindy Morris

Designer Tips

Close the hoop. Lash the rhinestone chain onto the hoop using Artistic Wire, wrapping around the hoop twice between each link of chain.
Start and end the chain over the opening of the (now closed) hoop. Trim ends when done.
The last link on each end will not lie quite flat, so tie the lark’s head knot over this spot to hide them.
Make sure your cord lengths are equal before attaching cord ends and clasp.
