DIY Delicate Rose Gold Wire & Chain Necklaces…


Sometimes a simple and delicate necklace is all I’m looking for and while quite similar to my DIY rose gold charm bracelets, the simple curved line of this one has a little more edge to it. Worn short or long, together or alone, or even layered with a few other chains, I think these simple lines make a big impact and I love the rose gold affect the copper gives.

What You’ll Need…


* Copper chain I used 3.6mm Flattened Curb Chain
* 20 gauge Copper wire
* Wire cutters
* Round nose beading pliers {these also offer a wire cutter}
* Strong nail file or sand paper

Steps…

* Decide how long you want your wire and cut appropriately.

* Using your nail file or sand paper, file any sharp edges down.

* Using your round nose pliers, carefully curve just the ends inward, creating a loop.

* They should simply look like this.

* Cut your chain to your desired length.

* Slip your chains over the ends of your loops… you don’t need a closure for this but rather will put it on and remove it by simply slipping the chain from your loops.

Voila!


Have Fun!
