Make the S Hook and Chain
Classy Pearl and Wire Necklace
1. Start by using 20-gauge wire to make the “S” Hook clasp using my “S” Wire Earrings, and set this aside for later use.

2. Now you are ready to start making the bead and wire chain. Following the same instructions for the Crystal Butterfly Bead and Wire necklace, make a chain of pearls using all 33 pearls and your 24-gauge wire. (You’ll need to use this thinner wire because the holes in pearls tend to be smaller than crystal and other beads.)
