Here's a few links to help you complete the projects followed by a few
assembly instructions for each piece:
This necklace is a bit more involved than previous projects. I've laid out the steps in the clearest manner possible, but there are certainly more ways than one to assemble this piece.
- Select an image and add it to the glass cabochon using Fantastic Glaze & Glue.
- Remove the Lobster Clasp and small jump rings from the end of the 24" Rolo Chain. Set them aside to be added later in step #13.
- Using a pair of old scissors or wire cutters, remove a piece of chain 15 links in length from each end of the Rolo Chain. At the end of this process, you should have 2 pieces of chain 15 links in length and one long piece of chain. We're going to build this piece from the bottom up.
- Attach the Large Oval Pendant Tray to the large jump ring. Close the jump ring using pliers. Attach the small Leaf Charm to the large jump ring using a small jump ring.
- Attach the two pieces of chain that are 15 links in length to the large jump ring using small jump rings.
- Lay your piece out on a flat surface. Attach a Branch Connector to the end of each of the short chains using a small jump ring. The Branch Connectors have a back and a front so be sure to attach them so that the front of the connector is face up and the curve of each connector is facing inward. This will ensure that the piece lays flatter when worn. Lay the piece out on a flat surface after each new addition. This will give you an idea of whether adjustments need to be made as you continue to assemble.
- Attach an Ellipse Loop to each Branch Connector using a small jump ring. The Ellipse Loops have a slight concave shape to them when laid flat. Be sure to attach them so that the concave arch of the Ellipse Loop is towards the back.
- Attach a Branch Connector to each Ellipse Loop using a small jump ring and follow the same instructions as outlined in step #6.
- Attach one end of the longer, remaining piece of rolo chain to the top loop of each Branch Connector using a small jump ring.
- At this point, you have the choice to make your piece any desired length you like. I chose to shorten it so that the chain including the Branch Connectors and Ellipse Loops (but NOT including the large jump ring and the Large Oval Pendant Tray) measure just under 26" in total. I felt that the piece laid best when worn at this length.
- To shorten the chain to a length of just under 26" like I did, lay the necklace completely out on a flat work surface. Find the very back center of the piece of the Rolo Chain. That is the point furthest away from the Large Oval Pendant Tray when stretched taut. Cut that very back center piece with a pair of old scissors or wire cutters
- Cut a piece approximately 4" in length off of each end using a pair of scissors or wire cutters.
- Re-attach the Lobster Clasp and Jump Rings that you sat aside in step #2.
- Add two Fantastic Sticky Dots to the tray. Remove the red backing to expose the adhesive.
- Firmly press the appropriate cabochon into the tray.
- Select an image and add it to the glass cabochons using Fantastic Glaze & Glue.
- Remove the Lobster Clasp and small jump ring from the ends of the 30" Rolo Chain.
- Attach the Flower Toggle loop piece to one end of the Rolo Chain and the Flower Toggle bar piece to the other end using small jump rings.
- Using pliers, bend back the top loop and the opposite bottom loop of the Large Round Modular Tray.
- Using pliers, bend back the top loop of the Small Round Modular Tray.
- Attach the top loop of the Large Round Modular Tray to the loop piece of the Flower Toggle using a Pinch Bail.
- Attach the top loop of the Small Round Modular Tray to the bottom loop of the Large Round Modular Tray using a small jump ring.
- Attach the small Leaf Charm to the jump ring between the Small Round Modular Tray and the Large Round Modular Tray using another small jump ring.
- Add two Fantastic Sticky Dots to the Large Round Modular Tray and one Fantastic Sticky Dot to the Small Round Modular Tray. Remove the red backing to expose the adhesive.
- Firmly press the appropriate cabochon into the trays.
- Press the remaining loops on the Modular Trays around the glass using a bone folder.
- Select images and add them to the glass cabochon using Fantastic Glaze & Glue.
- Using pliers, remove the Lobster clasp and decorative ball from the ends of the Charm Bracelet.
- Attach the Flower Toggle loop piece to one end of the Charm Bracelet using a small jump ring. Attach the Flower Toggle bar piece to the opposite end, also using a small jump ring.
- Attach the Small Square Charm Tray and the small Leaf Charm to the Charm Bracelet using small jump rings.
- Add a Fantastic Sticky Dot to the tray. Remove the red backing to expose the adhesive.
- Firmly press the appropriate cabochon into the tray.
- Select images and add them to the glass cabochons using Fantastic Glaze & Glue.
- Using pliers, bend back the top loop on each of the Tiny Round Modular Trays.
- Attach a French Ear Wire to the top loop of each Branch Connector.
- Attach a Tiny Round Modular Tray to the bottom of each Branch Connector using a small jump ring.
- Cut a Fantastic Sticky Dot into quarters and press a quarter piece into each tray. Remove the red backing to expose the adhesive.
- Firmly press the appropriate cabochon into each tray.
- Press the remaining loops on the Modular Trays around the glass using a bone folder.
- Select images and add them to the glass cabochons using Fantastic Glaze & Glue.
- Using pliers to bend back the top loop and the opposite bottom loop on each of the Mini Round Modular Trays.
