I have liked 'Mother of pearl' since I was a child. So when I saw these pearls at the store, I wanted to make myself a full set with them. It is a basic design and fairly easy to make.
You'll need:
Mother of pearl: 8 mm
Tiger tail Jewellery wire (nylon coated stainless steel)
18K gold crimp beads: 4
18K gold crimp bead covers: 4
Magnetic clasps: 2 pairs
18K gold headpins: 2
18K bead cap: 2
18K gold fish hooks: 2
Tools:
Needle nose pliers
Wire cutters
For the necklace & bracelet: Cut the jewellery wire to desired length. String the pearl beads to the length you want, leaving a few inches on either side for the finishing touches. Use the crimp bead using the basic technique in (C), attaching a pair of the magnetic clasp set to the necklace and bracelet . Use a crimp bead cover on top of the crimp bead (and carefully press the crimp bead cover close), to beautify it.
For the earrings: String a bead cap and a pearl on a head pin each, and make earrings using the basic technique (A).
