Instructions


Necklace Instructions

Step 1

Using FireLine® 6-lb crystal beading thread, create beaded tube segments by stitching rows of TILA® half tila beads (purple, mint green, light peach, light yellow and light pink) into short, stacked columns approximately 1 to 1-1/2 inches long.  

Step 2

String one beaded segment onto a 2-1/2 inch 21-gauge gold-plated head pin, add one fancy bead cap to each end, form a wrapped loop and wrap around a tube bead. 


Repeat to create multiple segments in coordinating colors. Stitch and secure the thread and trim.


Step 3

Create connector links by cutting 2-1/2 inch 21-gauge gold-plated eye pins. Attach one beaded segment per eye pin, forming wrapped loops on both ends to create linked components.

Step 4

Create the center drop by linking three beaded segments vertically using a head pin and two eye pins. Attach this drop to the center of the chain using a 4mm 22-gauge gold-plated jump ring.

Step 5

Attach the center drop to an 18-inch gold-finished 0.9mm twisted cable chain


Bracelet Instructions

Step 1

Create shorter beaded segments using TILA half tila beads in alternating colors to match the necklace, as in Step 1 of the Necklace Instructions.

Step 2

Attach the segments together using 2-1/2 inch 21-gauge gold-plated eye pins to form a bracelet length of approximately 7-1/2 to 8 inches.

Step 3

Attach a puffed heart charm near the clasp using a jump ring.

Step 4

Finish by attaching a clasp using 5mm 20-gauge jump rings.


Earring Instructions

Step 1

Create shorter beaded segments using TILA half tila beads in alternating colors to match the necklace, as in Step 1 of the Necklace Instructions.

Step 2

String each segment onto a 2-1/2 inch 21-gauge head pin, add bead caps and form a wrapped loop.

Step 3

Attach each drop to a gold-plated heart earstud using a 4mm jump ring.
