How to make a pearl necklace

You couldn't miss it: freshwater pearls are the big trend for spring and summer! In this second part of the Rendez-vous nacré collection, discover easy-to-make natural freshwater pearl jewelry. These creations will be ideal to match your festive summer outfits, in anticipation of a wedding for example, or with an everyday outfit to add a touch of chic.

In this tutorial, I'll show you how to make a necklace with freshwater pearls and pearly shell chip pearls to bring a wave of color in anticipation of summer. Original and vibrant, this necklace will be easy to match and will add style to simple everyday outfits: jeans, a white t-shirt, this necklace and you're done!

This tutorial presents no particular difficulties. You'll need flat pliers, 0.30mm wire, crushable pearls and pearl covers, wire protectors, an extension chain, freshwater pearls and chip pearls. You'll also need to choose a stainless steel charm for a piece of jewelry that will stand the test of time. For this tutorial, I've chosen a rounded, seabed-inspired charm to evoke the approaching summer.
Thanks to our wide choice of chip pearls, you can also personalize this necklace with gemstone pearls, for example, if you want to stick to a single color. Why not opt for Rutile Quartz or Turquoise?

If you reproduce this tutorial, we invite you to share your creation with us on social networks, mentioning Perles & Co on your post. We love to see the beautiful creations you make!
