DIY Single Pearl Chain Necklace and Bracelet


A pearl necklace can make any wardrobe outfit look professional for work and elegant outside of work. This pearl necklace tutorial is quick to make for yourself or for someone who likes pearls. Additionally, there is a tutorial for making a pearl bracelet to match a single pearl necklace. This tutorial requires some wire wrapping skills. Here is the tutorial for making this single pearl necklace and bracelet. 

Materials:
2 Head and Eye Jewelry Pin
Jewelry Pliers
Broken Chains
Jump Rings 
Pearls
A ready-made link bracelet or smaller Broken Chains
Lobster Clasps

Begin by wrapping a pearl with one head and an eye pin. Insert one pearl through the pin and wrap the pearl on both sides. Make sure the pearl stays in the center of the pin. Set the wrapped pearl aside. After that insert one jump ring to one broken chain with a lobster clasp. 

Then insert one jump ring at the end of the chain with the wrapped pearl with jewelry pliers. Insert the second broken chain with one jump ring for the lobster clasp. On the other end of the chain, insert one jump ring to the other side of the wrapped pearl. Now, the single pearl necklace is ready to be worn. Using the same technique, you can make a matching pearl bracelet. 

Make sure the broken chains have links to insert the jump rings. Also, make sure the jump rings go through the links before making the necklace or bracelet. Wire wrapping takes practice. Wire wrapping is an ancient jewelry skill that gives jewelry a unique fashion statement. Here are resources for wire wrapping, making pearl necklaces, and other tips for making jewelry.
