As the holidays approach, we're already thinking about what jewelry to give as a Christmas gift or what to wear to create the perfect look. To give you some ideas, take a look at our jewelry collection, dedicated to PureCrystal and Aurora crystal. We've paired them with a touch of gold to make sparkling and flamboyant DIY costume jewelry!
This DIY necklace tutorial is quick and easy to make... even for beginner designers! Elegant for everyday wear in the cut of a blouse, it will awaken in a blink of an eye a little black dress or an evening outfit a little too wise. It will also be very nice as a choker. For that, you will just have to remove some pearls until you reach the desired length.
If you want to wear it as a stacking necklace, we advise you to stack it with one or more sober golden chains.
In this woman's necklace, I used the new Aurora crystals to shine on the big day. Easy to use, they are already set. No need to use jeweler's pliers to use them: simply slip them on your wire... and voilà! For the pearls, I opted for freshwater pearls that give a timeless spirit to the creation. Crystal and pearly pearls, it's a happy marriage that will be of the most beautiful effect: the softness of the pearls contrasting wonderfully with the shine of the crystals.
Finally, I added some round recycled glass beads for color and some round beads decorated with zircons for an extra sparkling touch. Yes, you can never have too much sparkle for the holidays!
On the technical side, you'll learn how to use knot covers to hide the beads to be crushed and make flawless finishes. Simple, right?
Cut 40 cm of wire. This length is to be adjusted according to the length you want to make your necklace. Then thread the Aurora crystals, rondelles and freshwater pearls in the order shown in the photo.
Continue the necklace by stringing the large water pearls and Purple glass beads.
On the model, the length without the clasp is . Adjust to your needs.
Thread a crush bead, then pass your wire through the loop of the wire guard, and finally pass the wire back through the crush bead.
Position the wire protector correctly and then crush your crush bead with flat pliers. Cut the wire that protrudes, you can tuck the wire into 2-3 beads so that the wire is completely invisible.
Do the same on the other side.
Add your jewel clasp using connecting rings.
