Project details:

Labradorite is one of my favorite gemstones, so I was really excited to design with new shapes & sizes of it this week! For this design, I paired it with garnet, light blue agate, and gold & silver accents.

Supplies you’ll need:

Labradorite Rounds, Rondelles, & Cubes
Garnet Rounds
Sky Blue Agate Rondelles
Gold Round Beads
Silver Headpins
Gold Chain
Microsuede Cord
Silver 24 Gauge Wire
Green Girl Ring Focal
Lobster Clasp
Jump Rings

Step-by-Step Instructions:

Step 1

Use the silver 24 gauge wire to make bead links with the labradorite, garnet, sky blue agate rondelles, and the gold rounds. Connect each link directly to one another. Continue making bead links until your bead chain is 25" long.

Step 2

Knot a piece of the microsuede around the ring focal. Slide the end of the microsuede through the bottom loop of the bead chain about 1/4". Wrap a piece of wire around the two pieces of microsuede to secure. Repeat on the other side of the necklace.

Step 3

For the second necklace, I used a 22" piece of gold chain. Make 7 bead charms using the headpins, garnet, & labradorite. Attach directly to the center of the chain. Finish by attaching a jump ring & lobster clasp to the ends.
