Indian Agate And Nightingale Charm Necklace
This simple nightingale pendant necklace couldn't be easier to make and it looks really pretty. We've also added an Indian agate bead for a little extra touch of nature!
Are you thinking of making this as a gift? Why not add a presentation box or gift bag to your order.
STEP BY STEP INSTRUCTIONS
1. Start by adding the Indian agate bead to the headpin. Use the tips of round nose pliers to form a loop in the headpin just above where the bead sits at the bottom of the headpin. Then hold onto the loop with the tips of the snipe nose pliers and wrap underneath the loop a few times to secure. Trim excess wire using side cutters and tuck in the end of the wire.
2. Open a 3.5mm jump ring with a pari of snipe nose and flat nose pliers to add the loop of the beaded headpin and the bottom of the open nightingale charm before closing the jump ring again.
3. Open another 3.5mm jump ring with the same pairs of pliers and add the loop on the top of the nightingale charm and the chain. Close the jump ring and our necklace is ready to wear.
