How to Hang Letters from a Necklace

Making letters is half of the battle. The other half is what you do with them after you've made them. In most cases, letters made in wire are not strong enough to be used as a jewelry component by themselves. The letters will be more permanent if they are glued to a metal backing. The metal backing provides the strength to make sure that the letters retain their shape.

While using a metal sheet for backing is recommended, in the case of some custom jewelry applications, using a metal sheet may not be practical. Where this is the case, we recommend making a custom hanger for your letters converting a letter into a pendant.
