This vintage-style necklace includes a mix of metals, copper and brass, as well as some super sparkly purple crystal rondelle beads and a key charm.

You will need the following tools and materials:

*7 - 10mm Electric purple crystal rondelles
14 - 6mm Copper filigree bead caps
**1 - 34mm x 10mm Antique brass plated skeleton keys charm
2 - 6 inch Brass chain pieces, fine link
About 2 feet Copper wire, 21-gauge dead-soft
Wire cutters
Chain-nosed pliers
Round-nosed pliers
Nylon-nosed pliers

*These electric purple crystals came from Rings and Things, item #28-000-007-273.

**A lot of jewelry suppliers sell skeleton key charms. I purchased these Bunnysundries.
