| To make the center segment of this necklace start with an 8mm round Swarovski Crystal
bead in either the bicone or round shape. A Crystal AB bead may be
preferable to a crystal bead, but this is a matter of personal choice.
After adding the Crystal or Crystal AB bead add a crystal silver lined
seed bead in size 8 or 11 followed by an 8mm Swarovski Crystal Pearl
bead in the white color. Build the center segment with three
crystal pearls, followed by one crystal or crystal AB bead, followed by
three 8mm round semi-precious gemstone beads. The middle of these
gemstone beads is the center of your necklace. Finish the other
side of the center segment so that the beads in the Center Segment are
symmetrical as shown at right.
Because we have chosen white crystal pearls and crystal or crystal AB
beads, you can choose any color of semi-precious gemstone beads other than
white. |

| The Middle 1 Segment begins with two 8mm round semi-precious gemstone beads (separated by a seed bead or crimp bead) followed by a 8mm crystal or crystal AB bead, then three 8mm Swarovski Crystal Pearls in the white color and a second 8mm crystal or crystal AB bead. The middle segment ends with three round 6mm semi-precious gemstone beads. Again, separate each of the larger beads from one another with a seed bead or a metal crimp bead. (You do not need to crimp the crimp bead. It is just being used as a spacer bead.) |
