Valentine's DIY: Faceted Bead Necklaces!

 Valentine's DIY: Faceted Bead Necklaces!
Nothing says Happy Valentine's day better than some sweet jewelry!
I love these sparkly necklaces!

 I got my supplies from Oriental Trading.
They are a great source for everything for parties, weddings,
crafts, DIY's, jewelry and more!
I love their high quality craft supplies.
They sent me the supplies to work with for this post!

 You will want:

Snake Chain Necklace
Snake Chain Bracelet
Faceted Beads
Bird Beads
Pastel Beads
AB Faceted Beads
Or any other Large Hole Beads
Jewelry pliers

This made 6 gorgeous sets.
Great for tweens or teens or a ladies craft night!

 You will need 2 pliers to get started.
The chains are thick and awesome.  But the jump ring makes it
so that you can't just slip on the beads.
This is nice, because it means you can't just loose the beads when you take the chain off.

 So use both pliers to slide the opening of the jump ring.  Don't pull it outwards,
Slide one side forward and the other backward.
This will make it easier to put back together too.

 Now thread on a few beads.  I think an odd number is perfection.
Either 3 or 5.  4 looks great too.

 Then attach the jump ring back on the end and latch it.
They look sparkly and gorgeous!

 I absolutely love the AB faceted beads!
So glitzy and beautiful.  Great for Valentine's day gifts of just fun craft night!
