Quick Project Steps

This fashionable Lady Danbury necklace is sure to dress up any outfit you wear it with. The floral looking wire necklace catches the light with the crystals worked in throughout.
1. Cut 2 feet of 20ga and 24ga wire. Use a sharpie to make a round loop near the end of the 20ga wire. Use pliers to bend the short end about 45 degrees. Holding the loop, wrap the tail end around the long wire 3 times, trim the end. Slide a 6mm Czech bicone onto the wire.
<2. Watch the Lady Danbury necklace tutorial to see how Allie creates eye pins for the beads to decorate this beautiful wire necklace.
3. Leave about 4 inches at the end of the piece. Bend the wire at about an inch and a half. Pinch the fold with pliers so it’s flat on itself. Twist the end around the last bead in the pattern. Use the sharpie to form a rounded hook. Bend the tip up slightly with pliers.
Practice your wire working skills with this Lady Danbury Necklace. You’ll love how all the different beads dangle around your neck. Use up some of the beads you have on hand or find some new favorites at PotomacBeads.

    Received package of 6x12mm amethyst daggers in two sizes! 14 correct size 6x12mm but the rest were a lot bigger! I will only be able to make 7 sets of Glamorous earrings! Couple of EVA beads did not have the second hole. I could not even make a hole! Overall, thank you !!

    I receive the wrong item I ordered. I ordered a clear acrylic bead sorter and received a wooden one that had barely visible letters and numbers. I asked for the clear acrylic one to be sent to me - as that is what I ordered - and agreed to return the wooden one if a postage paid address label was sent to me. Nobody answered.
