Hi this is Megan with Beadaholique.com and today I'm going to show you
how to make the pave crystal birthstone necklace
from our Pave Crystal birthstone necklace kits
and they are available in
all the different colors for the different birthstones
and there's also an earring kit available
this is just for the necklace I'm going to show you how to do that piece
What you'll receive in that kit
is one finished chain necklace, one crystal pave bead
two bead aligners, two Crystal bicones
one head pin and a jump ring
so the first thing you're going to do
is take your head pin. If it's a little bent, you'll just want to just
straightening it. Onto
your head pin place one of the bicone beads, place
one of the bead aligners with the wide end at the bottom
place your pave bead
and then you're going to place the other bead aligner with the wide end of the
top
so that the narrow ends go into the hole of the bead and
then place your second bicone. Now we're going to create a wrapped wire loop
To start this you're going to take
a pair of chain nose pliers and grab just above the bicone making sure that the
beads are pushed all the way down
with the very tip of the pliers
and then bend the top of the head pin
all the way over. Use a pair of round nose pliers to grab just above the bend
you're going to bend back around
rotate your pliers and finish
that loop so it's a complete circle
you wanna end with your head pin facing at a 90 degree angle
to the little piece of head pin that's sticking up here
wrap
this tail around that little stem use your
other pair of pliers to hold on to the end
and wrap and you're going to wrap
until you fill up
the space until you get close to that bead
use a pair of flush cutters to trim the end, the
extra little tail
then you want to use your chain nose pliers to tuck
the end in so that it's not sharp. You can also use them to straighten out
your loop if it get's bent and you're going to take
your jump ring. You wanna find the joint
where the jump ring opens. Use a chain nose plier and a second plier
which in this case can be round nose, it can also be a second pair of chain nose
grab to either side of the opening
and twist the two sides away from each other
to open, hang
your new pendant off of the the jump ring
and then you want to place
the chain of your necklace inside the jump ring and
twist the two sides back to me
to close your jump ring and that's all there is to it
and you have a very pretty piece of birthstone jewelry.
