Snowflake Necklace

VIDEO TUTORIAL

I am pleased to present to you a new poetic creation as the end-of-year celebrations approach!

A pretty snowflake pendant mounted on a necklace chain that you can use as a decoration placed in the tree, hung in front of a window, on a festive table...

Here I used Zirconium Oxide beads, their luminous shine allows me to create a jewel that captures the light perfectly and reminds me of the effect of the sun's rays reflecting in the snow.

A simple tutorial to make, follow the steps in the video to reproduce this model perfectly!

Beautiful creation!

30cm of single link chain Gilded with 24K fine gold

The assembly:

This creation is not very complicated to make, follow the explanations below to faithfully reproduce this model. Our video below shows you the essential assembly steps. Do not hesitate to decline this model with the beads of your choice!

Here we used Zirconium Oxide beads for their shine and their close rendering  of the transparency and color of snowflakes.

To start, cut a flexible brass wire of about 60cm. Be careful not to take a wire that is too short to avoid connections.

Wrap the brass wire around the closed ring and cut off the excess wire neatly.

Now thread 3 beads onto the wire and then wrap the wire around the ring, forming a small curve with the beads. Tighten the wire well to prevent the beads from moving.

Continue with the same method to place all the beads. With this ring size you will place 24 beads in total, or 8 modules of 3 beads which will allow you to go completely around the ring.

Take the fancy faceted link chain, here 20cm, fold it in 2 to visualize the central link. Place the central link on the brass wire then wrap the wire between 2 beads to fix the chain on the ring. Wrap the wire between the bottom of the link and the ring to finish the hook. Cut the excess wire flush.

Now cut the single link chain into 2 pieces of 15cm, or longer depending on the length of the desired necklace. Connect the single link chains to the ends of the fancy chain with jump rings.

At the ends, place the clasp and the extension chain (about 4cm) with jump rings.

And there you have it! Your creation is finished! I hope you like this tutorial and that it makes you want to use it with other beads, as a Christmas decoration...

Beautiful creation!
