3. Using same pliers grab the base of longer wire and bend it back down a bit; use round nose pliers to grab the wire closer to the bend and make a loop by bringing the wire over the top pliers; trim excess wire next to base o loop; use all the briolettes left to make 5 more of these and set aside;
4. Cut the chain on desired length and then attach gold plated hook and eye to the ends of it;
5. Find the center of chain; using a jump ring attach the center ring of a slide bar clasp to the chain; close gently and attach the other 2 rings using 2 jump rings. Repeat this step to attach the other 2 slide bar clasp to the chain, leaving a 3 links space between them;
