How to make a freshwater pearl necklace?

It is THE trend of the moment, golden and minimalist jewelry with the safety pin pendant at the top of the list!

It was not an easy task to choose between all our zircon charms and golden pendants since they are all cannons, it's up to you to take a tour and personalize your jewelry, bracelet, hoop earrings or necklace everything goes (and why not an ankle brace?).

We love the addition of freshwater pearls in the choker, they add a little romantic touch to this stacking of necklaces perfect for summer.

Find all our tutorials of the month on the theme of minimalist jewelry with rhinestones and zircons.

This tutorial is perfect for beginners in DIY jewelry, you will still need to equip yourself with a few pliers and this small kit is perfect !

For this tutorial you will need these technical sheets for a pro collar:

- How to open a ring?

- How to form a loop on a nail or a rod for jewelry?

So ready? Go!

For the choker

• Step 1: Cut 37 cm of chain with wire cutters (or measure your neck to adjust the necklace so that it is more or less flush).
• Step 2: Open a ring then hang it at one end of the chain and add the clasp before closing your ring.
• Step 3: Open a second ring to attach the clasp fastener to the other end of the chain and close it.
• Step 4: Take 6 nails then thread a freshwater pearl on each, then form with each of the nails a loop without closing it completely.
• Step 5: Open a ring then hang a star charm in the middle of the chain (tip: lay the chain flat horizontally for easier).
• Step 6: Add on each side and at regular intervals a freshwater pearl, a star charm, a freshwater pearl etc so as to have at the end 6 freshwater pearls and 5 stars (see photo).

Your choker is finished!

For the necklace with pendant:

• Step 1: Take the rest of the chain, you can cut it to adjust the necklace to your liking, we recommend a length of 50 cm but you can consult our technical sheet to choose the length of your jewelry .
• Step 2: Attach the clasp on each side of the chain as for step 2 of the choker.
• Step 3: Hang the safety pin pendant using an open ring.

And now your necklaces are finished, to wear together for a bohemian chic look or separately!
