Step 1: Place a 3mm Swarovski pearl onto a ball-tip head pin. Add a Swarovski crystal scarab bead. Finish the head pin with a wrapped loop to create a scarab bead drop.

Repeat to create bead drops using all crystal beads and head pins.

Step 2: Using oval jump rings, connect the bead drops together.

Step 5. Use an oval jump ring to add a lobster clasp to the last link on one end of the length of chain. Using an oval jump ring, add the melody link to a link on the length of chain. I like to put this “charm” near the end of the chain so it hangs below where I connect the lobster clasp.
