Holiday Jewelry, DIY

The Holidays are upon us and money is tight everywhere but that does not mean you can't go out to that party without a little bling.  Make it yourself, and put that extra MONEY  you save toward a present for someone else. I wanted some sparkle for my night out Friday, so I made a bracelet and some earrings, super easy and  it only took me an hour to make both.

1. Pliers
2. Four large jump rings
3. Six small jump rings
4. Clasp
5. Rhinestone chain and connectors(they come with the rhinestone chain)
6. Chain~ All mine was left over chain~
7. Earring findings

 Cut your length of Chain and about 6 inches.  The Rhinestone I made a little shorter about 5 inches
( measure you wrist and make it to your size)

 connect your chain to each jump ring, add your clasp.

 I added a small jump ring to each rhinestone length, then I  added that  to one of  the chains,  (not to the large jump ring.)

 For the earrings I cut four pieces of chain, and two lengths of rhinestones chain.
add the four lengths of chain to the large jump ring~

take the two 2 lengths of small rhinestone chain and add that to a small jump ring,
 now add the small jumps ( with the rhinestones)  to the large jump ring.
Now  add your earring finding.  ~make sure your earring is facing the right way when you add it.~
Close the jump ring.

Now you have new sparkles for a night out,

for little or no money.
