How to make a necklace with a lobster clasp?

Welcome to this new tutorial! Today I'm going to show you, step by step, how to make a necklace with a lobster clasp. The originality of this necklace lies in the diverted use of the clasp. We're going to use it as a support for our charms. For this example, I've chosen one charm, two pearls and created a fourth charm with three spinners and a nail. You're free to add as many as you like.

Our site offers a wide range of charms that will enable you to create unique jewelry: in stainless steel, 925 silver, gold filled (rolled gold)... But you can also use pearls, as shown here with the spinning tops or the ceramic flower bead.

For this necklace, I selected 4 mm Preciosa blue toupies and Miyuki 8/0 white and silver seed beads. The beads are strung randomly, giving free rein to your creativity!

At the bottom of this page, you'll find all the materials and products needed to reproduce this jewel in gold.

For this necklace, we're going to make two strands of pearls, which will go to the right and left of the lobster clasp and connect with a clasp in the back of your neck.

For the first, we'll put rings at each end. For the second, we'll put a ring on one end and a clasp on the other.

Bonjour Vanessa,
Ce collier est composé d'un fermoir ovale, élément central auquel sont fixés deux fils de perles. 
Vous fixerez le fermoir lorsque vous réaliserez le deuxième fil de perles. Pour le fixer, il vous faut reproduire l'étape 5 : Passez une protection pour fil câblé, et à la place de mettre un anneau, passez votre fermoir. Puis ajouter une perle à écraser et enfilez vos perles. 
J'espère que c'est plus clair, n'hésitez pas au besoin
Belle journée
