Instructions:

  1. Use one 8" piece of Spinel wire, one 8" piece of Pink Tourmaline wire, and one 8" piece of Amethyst wire to string 1 crimp tube. Place a Bead Stopper at one end of the wires.

  2. Use one end of the Spinel wire to string 6 pink CZ rondelles. Use one end of the Pink Tourmaline wire to string 2 Pink Tourmaline leaves. Use one end of the Amethyst wire to string 1 lavender CZ briolette, 1 amethyst CZ rondelle, 2 lavender CZ briolettes, 1 amethyst CZ rondelle, and 1 lavender CZ briolette. Place a Bead Stopper at the end of all three wires.

  3. Remove the Bead Stopper used in Step 1. Repeat Step 2 using the other ends of the wires. Center the crimp tubes on the wires. Remove one Bead Stopper and pass the wires back through the crimp tube. Remove the other Bead Stopper and pass back through the crimp tube to create a Figure 8 with the wires. Crimp the tube, making sure to waste as little wire as possible.

  4. Repeat Steps 1-3 twice for a total of three Figure 8 links.

  5. Use 2 jump rings to attach the hook half of the clasp to one end of one Figure 8 link, making sure to place the jump rings halfway between the beads on the link.

  6. Attach 1 eye pin to the other end of the Figure 8 link, making sure to place the eye pin halfway between the beads on the link. String 1 Amethyst pebble, 1 Amethyst simple cut stone, and 1 Amethyst pebble. Form a wire wrapped loop that attaches to one end of one grape link. Attach 1 eye pin to one end of a second Figure 8 link. String 1 Amethyst pebble, 1 Amethyst simple cut stone, and 1 Amethyst pebble. Form a wire wrapped loop that attaches to the other end of the grape link.

  7. Repeat Step 6 to attach the second and third Figure 8 links.

  8. Attach 1 eye pin to the other end of the third Figure 8 link. String 1 Amethyst pebble, 1 Amethyst simple cut stone, and 1 Amethyst pebble. Form a wire wrapped loop that attaches to 1 grape link. Use the remaining eye pin to string 1 Amethyst pebble, 1 Amethyst simple cut stone, and 1 Amethyst pebble. Form a wire wrapped loop that attaches to the other end of the grape link.

  9. Use 2 jump rings to attach the loop of the last eye pin used to the hook half of the clasp.
