The Raven's Journey beads in this necklace are all the same shape and color, but vary in size, giving the necklace a graduated style.
Cut a length of jewelry wire approximately 22 inches. Add a crimp tube to one end of the wire, followed by half of the clasp set. Bring the wire back through the crimp tube and crimp in place. Hide the crimp with a 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!
