Ingredients:

1 Swarovski Emerald Leaf Pendant

2 8mm Swarovski Crystal Cal. Rounds

1 10mm Swarovski Silver Shade Round

1 10mm Swarovski Siam Round

1 10mm Swarovski Garnet Round

1 10mm Swarovski Pearl Lt. Grey

7 1.5 24ga headpins

3 inches 24ga silver wire

Chain- we used 30inches, how ever long you would like to wear it.

3 silver jump rings

Lobster claw

1. Use the 3inch piece of silver wire and wrap the leaf, connecting it to the larger end of the Figure 8.

2. Choose a crystal or pearl and one head pin. Wrap this bead onto the larger end of the Figure 8.

3. Keep wrapping one bead and one headpin at a time onto the larger end of the Figure 8 until all 8 beads are on the larger end of the Figure 8.

4. Use one of the jump rings and connect the smaller end of the Figure 8 to the center link on the chain.

5. Use another jump ring to connect the end of the chain to the lobster claw. Connect the other jump ring to the other end of the chain.

6. Wear and enjoy.

Earrings:

2 10mm Swarovski Siam Rounds

2 8mm Swarovski Emerald Rounds

2 8mm Swarovski Garnet Rounds

2 8mm Swarovski Crystal Cal. Round

2 7mm Swarovski Pearl Dk. Grey

2 7mm Swarovski Pearl Lt. Grey

2 6mm Silver Shade Rounds

2 inches of chain

14 1.5 24ga headpins

Earwires

-2 med. sized jump rings may be needed

1. Cut the chain into 2 one inch sections

2. Just like the necklace; using one headpin to connect one bead to the last link of chain. If the chain you chose has rather small links, you may need to use a jump ring to the end of the chain to connect your beads to. You could even attach some of the beads to the 2nd to last link if your chain won't allow for 7 wire wraps.

3. After you get one of each of the beads onto each chain piece, connect the top of the chain to the earwires.
