Cut a length of jewelry wire approximately ten inches long. Slide a sterling silver 2x2mm crimp tube onto one end. Bring the wire through a sterling silver 6.10mm open jump ring attached to a JBB antique silver-plated pewter crimp end cap with loop. Then, bring the wire back through the crimp tube. Crimp in place and hide with a sterling silver 3mm crimp cover.

Nice choice! All or most of the products needed for this project are shown below with quantities. Sometimes we sell out of components and aren’t able to order more from the manufacturer (we know, it is very disappointing to us, too). Use the opportunity to mix up the design and make it yours by substituting similar products or altering the entire color scheme—it’s up to you!
