Jewelry Making: Blue Bird Necklace and Earrings

Jewelry Making: Blue Bird Necklace

 

This is about the time of year when the lack of sunshine here in NE Ohio starts to get to me. I start dreaming of blue skies and sunny days… but if I can’t have happy, sunny day’s, I’ll take a happy, sunny necklace… until the weather turns anyway. :)

 

This is a necklace I created for an eBook (you can down load the eBook here) for Consumer Crafts. It’s been a while and I got the OK to share it with MY readers now. I hope you enjoy it!

 

Supplies:

The crystals I used are no longer available but you could replace them with a few Novelty Crystals  or any kind of large, clear bead.

24 Inch Chain Antique Copper – large links

Wood Blue Mini Bird – 3 piece

Strand – purple embossed, blue “rope”, gold

Antique Copper Earring Findings

Antique Copper Pin Rings

1. Find the center link of the chain and attach the wood mini bird with a jump ring.

2. Add the purple embossed bead with a jump ring; also in the center link

3. Add other beads to the chain with jump rings as shown in the above photo

4. Add the crystal elements (keep them on the rings that come with the packaging as a regular jump ring is too small) as shown.

To make the matching earrings you’ll need these supplies:

Super easy, happy and chunky. Just the way I like my jewelry!
