Attach longer chain pieces to the upper eye pin to form the necklace base.
String Czech glass beads and glass pearls onto beading wire, connecting sections with crimp beads.

had a little difficulty getting correct amounts in the cart: site multiplied single item rather than adding additional items. Perhaps because I was trying to order from an email re: items I was waiting for?
