Pearls Before Swine Necklace Tutorial

Created by: Mollie Valente

Designer Tips

  • Create a saddle for the pig with two filigrees wrapped around his middle.
  • Use jump rings to connect the two filigrees at the top. Carefully bend the filigrees around the pig (or use oval mandrel pliers)
    and connect at the bottom with another jump ring.
  • New to jewelry-making? See Basic Jewelry-Making Technique Sheet (PDF).
