Connect Chain and Beads

1. Use wire cutters to cut 7 sections of chain, each about 1 1/4 inch long. If your chain has a pattern, like this long and short, then pay attention to this as you cut your sections so they all match. For this chain pattern, each of my section had the following links: one short, one long, 3 short, one long, 3 short, one long, one short.

2. Using 22-gauge wire and round-nosed pliers, make a loop on the wire, attach it to the end of one chain piece, and wrap it closed.
