Step 1

Measure and cut a 48" [121.9 cm] piece of clear transite cord. Fold the transite in half and slide the fold through a closed jump ring. Bring the ends up and around the jump ring and slide through the loop of the fold. Pull tight to complete the lark’s head knot.

Step 2

Working on one cord, thread on about 16" [40.6 cm] of rose quartz chip beads. Clip a bead bug onto the cord to hold the beads in place.

Step 3

Now, thread on about 10"-12" [25.4 cm-30.5 cm] of rose quartz chip beads. Add the pendant followed by another 10"-12" [25.4 cm-30.5 cm] of rose quartz chip beads. Clip another bead bug onto this cord to hold the beads in place.

Step 4

Open a jump ring, slide on a lobster clasp and close the jump ring.
TIP: To open and close a jump ring, simply grasp the jump ring on both sides with chain nose pliers and twist the ring open, from side-to-side. Never pull the jump ring which can cause distortion.

Step 5
Carefully remove the bead bugs and tie the ends to the jump ring with the lobster clasp into a secure knot. Thread the ends through adjacent beads, add a generous amount of glue and let dry. Trim excess cord.
