6. Continue by alternating a section of seed beads and a section of stone and crystal beads until you get to the end of the first strand.

7. Finish off with another crimp bead.

8. Repeat the bead design on the other side, and also finish off with a crimp bead.

9. Make a clover clasp using more sterling silver wire and attach both ends to the necklace to complete it.

Each of the necklaces I make is different, so they are a lot of fun to make. If you have a jig, instead of using a cast center piece, you could make your own wire center piece. If you aren’t into fusing, you could dangle a sterling charm instead of a fused pendant. There are lots of possibilities.
