String a headpin with a 4mm Swarovski peach 2xAB crystal bicone, a 5mm crystal AB cupped sequin, and an 8mm champagne freshwater pearl and make a wrapped loop. Repeat 56 more times and set aside. Flatten a 16mm filigree bead cap. Center a coin pearl and wrap the bead cap around the pearl, being careful to leave the coin pearl’s hole centered between two folds. Repeat three more times. String a headpin with a 6mm Swarovski crystal AB margarite, a Botanical lampworked flower, and a 6mm antiqued brass daisy bead cap and make a wrapped loop. Repeat four more times. String a headpin with a 6mm Swarovski margarite, a 6x30mm antique brass engraved toggle bar, and a 2mm brass bead and make a wrapped loop. Separate six links of 6.5x9.5mm etched cable chain. Repeat. Connect one of the lengths of chain to the toggle bar from step 4 using a 4.75mm jumpring. Working from a spool of 24 gauge gunmetal wire, string a 4mm Swarovski crystal bicone, a 5mm sequin, an 8mm pearl, a sequin, and a crystal and make a wrapped loop, connecting it to a pearl dangle created in step 1. Cut the wire and make a wrapped loop on the other side, connecting another pearl dangle. Using a 4.75mm jumpring, connect this first link from step 6 to the opposite end of the chain with the toggle bar from step 5.
Repeat step 6 to connect a new link. Note: Connect the first wrapped loop to a new pearl dangle and the previous link with its pearl dangle rotated to the top of its loop. This ensures the necklace will be balanced.
Continue creating beaded links using 8mm pearls, filigree wrapped coin pearls, and light topaz luster Luft lampworked hollow beads. Add them to the design in the pattern shown or as desired, connecting Botanical lampworked flowers and pearl dangles to the wrapped loops between each of the beaded links. Connect the last beaded link to the second six link length of chain from step 5. Connect the other end of the chain to a hammered ring using a 4.75mm jumpring.
