Step One – Create Carnelian Pendant
1. Add one 3x2mm Copper Rondelle, one 20mm Carnelian
Puff Round, one 10mm Copper Filigree Bead Cap
(large side first), and one 8mm Gold Crystal Round to a
copper headpin. Make a 90° bend in just above beads. Using round nose pliers
(or any pliers you have) hold the headpin near the angle and bend it around the
pliers to make a loop. Wrap down around headpin just below the loop creating
as many coils as you can. Trim any extra.
Step Two – Create Necklace
1. Open one side of the S Hook to allow the ring to come out of the hook.
2. Take one end of your Buddy Braids wire and thread 1 crimp tube approximately an inch from the end. Thread the ring you just removed from your S Hook clasp. Thread the end back through the crimp bead. Using a pair of pliers squeeze the crimp tube closed about a 1/8th of an inch away from the clasp. See illustration 1 on the next page. Trim the excess leaving about a quarter of an inch, you will thread the first bead over both ends.
