Its Easy Being Green Necklace & Earrings

This fresh green color in the It’s Easy Being Green Necklace & Earrings is perfect for fall, especially with the copper accents. Make this quick necklace and easy earrings by VIcki O'Dell for Consumer Crafts by disassembling and reassembling a set of jewelry components.

Necklace

Materials:

• Boho Collection™ 6 inch Green leaf chain with beads GG-026
• Boho Collection™ 18 inch Antique copper chain (both pieces) GG-034
• Boho Collection™ antique copper rings GG-040
• Precision pliers set 1995-14

Instructions:

1. Disassemble the 6 inch green leaf chain so that all of the beads are separate, but still ontheir original eye pins. Center the green leaf bead on one of the 18 inch chains and attach with a jump ring.
    
2. Cut 5 lengths of chain 10-16 links long - each one a different length - from the second chain. Attach to the bottom of the leaf with a jump ring.
   
3. Attach another jump ring to the jump ring that holds the leaf onto the necklace. Add one of the brown etched beads to this ring.
   
4. Attach two more brown etched beads to this jump ring in the same way. Alternately, you could attach these beads to different links in the chain, or use the turquoise beads instead, depending on your preference.
