Mixing metals is a great way to create contrast in your jewelry designs. Here, matte black chain is mixed in with silver pieces. The silver items really shine against the matte black. You could recreate this style with a combination of copper and gold, gold and silver, black and gold, and so many more options. See more ideas for mixing metals in your jewelry designs in this Artbeads Cafe episode.
Cut a length of 5x4.5mm matte black-plated flat cable chain approximately 2 1/4 inches long. Repeat five times for a total of six chains. Attach each chain to each loop of the antique silver-plated decorative hemicycle pendant using a 5mm matte black-plated 18 gauge open jump ring for each.
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!
