Ribbon Pendant 2

Instructions:

Build bead drops by placing beads on the headpins and make a loop.
Attach a bead drop to each end of the chain.
Open eyepin and link chain in so the beads hang nicely – you be the judge… I like them staggered.
Using the same eyepin link the hoop into the eye, close the eyepin. The hoops were meant to slide beads onto, but we are using them plain, so you will need to crimp the hoop closed by squeezing with pliers.
Glue rhinestone onto the top of the hoop, let dry.
Add one bead onto the eyepin, make loop and thread ribbon through. To wear, tie a bow in the back or if you want add a clasp using cord ends. To change the look – try changing the ribbon!
