I think the druzy and chain tassel in this necklace look amazing together. I kept it simple by using a leather foundation. author signature

A chain tassel underneath a sparkling druzy creates a waterfall look in this beautiful necklace. The chain tassel comes already assembled, so it's easy to showcase in your designs. Cynthia used black leather cord as the backdrop for her beautiful focal. Find more inspiration for using tassels in your jewelry designs in this Artbeads Cafe episode.

Cut a length of 26 gauge Silver Artbeads Designer Wire approximately 12 inches long. Center the large silver-plated brass tassel pendant on the wire. Bring both ends of the wire through a Dakota Stones 12x16mm druzy green oval bead so that a loop is formed at the fold of the wire, holding the tassel in place below the druzy. Create a wrapped loop with both ends of the wire at the top of the druzy.

Slide a TierraCast antique silver small coiled ring spacer onto a two-foot length of Leather Cord USA 1.5mm natural black round leather, followed by a sterling silver 3x15mm curved tube bead, another spacer, and the druzy focal. Repeat the bead pattern on the other side of the focal.

Add a JBB antique silver-plated pewter crimp end cap with loop to each end of the leather. Attach half of the TierraCast antique pewter 1/2-inch Anna's toggle clasp set to each end of the necklace using a sterling silver 5.95mm open jump ring for each.
