This is a very simple, yet elegant necklace made with 3 Crystal Moonlight Twist pendants and 4 twist beads. I haven't been able to think of a name that fits it. I want the name to reflect the simplicity, but also the mystery of moonlight.....mmmm, what should the name be?

-
Step 3

-
Step 4
Cut leather to desired length, and glue bell-type end caps to each end with 2-part epoxy.
-
Step 5
Using headpins with two 5621 - 14mm beads, wire wrap to both ends of the flat cable chain, making large loops . Then wire wrap the third bead in between the two ends. When glue is dry on end caps, open ring and attach it to the final link of the cable chain (not the loop from the wire wrapped bead). Open ring on other side and attach lobster clasp. Clasp the lobster clasp into any of the 4 large loops in the twist beads to close the necklace. Remaining beads will hang down your back.
