Step 1
Cut the following:

- One 4-inch length of 5mm cable chain
Step 2
String onto the length of beading wire: one crimp, one lobster claw clasp and one Accu-Guard™ wire protector. Pass the beading wire back through the crimp. Pull the beading wire so the crimp rests snug against the Accu-Guard leaving approximately 1/4 inch of beading wire on the end. Crimp then trim the excess from the short end of the beading wire.
Step 3
String onto the beading wire:
- 12 sets of:
- 20 luster pearl white #6 rocailles
- One aqua bohemi 4mm round
- 20 luster pearl white #6 rocailles
Step 4
String onto the length of beading wire: one crimp, one 14mm soldered jump ring and one Accu-Guard™ wire protector. Pass the beading wire back through the crimp. Pull the beading wire so the crimp rests snug against the Accu-Guard leaving approximately 1/4 inch of beading wire on the end. Crimp then trim the excess from the short end of the beading wire.
Step 5
Pass one 6mm round square wire jump ring through the last loop on one end of the length of chain and the 14mm soldered jump ring then close.
Attach one 15.5x15mm single sided anchor charm and one 15x7mm two-sided shell charm to the 14mm soldered jump ring.
Attach one 10mm glass pearl charm and one 15x14mm single-sided starfish charm to the last loop on the opposite end of the chain.
