Pirate Necklaces

Project Level-Intermediate(knowledge of jewelry making required)
Project List:
20 gauge wire(blue wire)
Skull medallions
metal findings
o-rings chain
beads

I had these skulls since high school but they are easy to find especially around Halloween and Hot Topic. I made the red necklace out of chain and red beads. I just hook it up using o-rings.This necklace didn't take too long. The hardest part was making sure everything was even. http://www.wigjig.com/jewelry-tools/WJU/jewelry/necklaces1/chainedjewels/pg07.htm

The second necklace required wire work. To make the beads wrapped in wire http://www.wigjig.com/jewelry-tools/WJU/jewelry/necklaces2/twistdiane/pg10.htm

then I attached each bead flower with o-rings and added a dangling metal finding on the bottom.They look like daggers.
