• Instructions •
1. Cut elongated chain in 10 equal pieces of 1 ˝”and set aside.

2. You will need 6 aquamarine and 4 sapphire Swarovski bicones. Use a chain nose plier to form a ring, leaving enough wire to wrap around the loop 2 times. Insert the wire into the bead, carefully bend the wire around the outside of the bead and wrap excess wire around wire sticking out of the bead until the wraps meet up with the other wrapped wire under the loop. Repeat this step until you have used all the 10 Swarovski beads.

3. Using chain nose pliers open a end link of one piece of elongated chain, attach one of the beads from step 2, close gently and set aside. Repeat until you have 10 pieces of it made and set all aside.

4. Simply slide the Beadalon wire into the end of the EZ crimp end until wire is visible at the loop. Use Beadalon Mighty Crimper outer jaw to squeeze on the smooth portion of the crimp, crimp the entire length of the EZ crimp and the connection is complete.

5. String 1 seed bead + one Swarovski aquamarine and insert through the hole of donut until the tip of the wire sticks out of it and add one seed bead + one Swarovski sapphire + one seed bead + cat eye oval + seed bead + Swarovski aquamarine and through the opposite donut hole until tip of wire sticks out of it, add one Swarovski sapphire and one seed bead.

6. Finishing the donut repeating step 5. Trim excess wire and set aside.

7. Use chain nose pliers to open blue jump ring and attach 3 pieces from step 3. Attach it to the opened loop of EZ crimp, close it gently. Repeat this step to make another of it. Pick the beads according with your own desire.

8. Repeat step 7 and attach the 4 pieces of chain left in order of complete the tassel.

9. Feed the blue suede lace through the EZ crimp end. Fold it in half and insert the double strand (of the fold) into the eye of the EZ crimp end. Once it’s through the eye feed the ends of the faux suede through the loop of the faux side. Attach a crimp cover to the end of each strand of faux suede near the end. Use the Mighty crimp tool to close the crimp cover completely, and then trim the faux suede.
