This is how the elegant necklace with a pearl pendant is made:
First thread the small lock ring into the 10 mm ring. Use the jewelry pliers for this. Then wrap the ring with the silver wire up to the middle. Take a flat head needle and thread a crystal bead of any color. Repeat this process with another two beads. First, a bead cap is threaded onto another flat-head needle and a bead is threaded over it.
Then attach two of the charms to the ring with beads. Bend the end of the flathead needle to create a hook. You can shorten the needle if desired. Take the last pendant element and shorten the needle. Now attach the shortened flat head pin with the bead to the tip of the silver bead cap. Prepare a 46 cm long silver chain. Attach a chain end to each end of the chain. Also attach two lock rings and the lobster claw clasp to it.
