Necklace with Freshwater Pearls and Apatite Gemstones

Necklace of Freshwater Pearls and Apatite Gemstone

The combination of freshwater pearls and apatite gemstones is super stylish. You can layer the necklaces, combine them however you like, or wear just one at a time.

All the necklaces are very easy to make: simply thread beads on nylon wire and finish with a clasp.

How to make the necklaces?:

Necklace 1 - Apatite and Chain

Thread on the nylon wire alternately 2 Miyuki delicas and 1 raw apatite bead until you reach about 15cm.

Finish both ends of the wire with a crimp bead and calotte. This forms one beaded strand.

For the other side, cut a piece of chain to the same length. Attach the chain with a jumpring to the calotte of the beaded strand and a toggle clasp on the other side.

Used materials:
Gemstone beads, we used Apatite
Chain, we used 10x5.5mm
Miyuki delica 11/0, we used gold
Calotte
Crimp beads
Nylonthread
Toggle clasp
Jumpring 4mm

Necklace 2 - Freshwater pearls with charm

Thread on the nylon wire alternately 1 Miyuki delica and 1 freshwater pearl.

Finish both ends with a calotte. Attach a piece of chain (5–10 cm) on each side at the calotte.
Finish with a lobster clasp so you can adjust the length of the necklace easily.

Used materials:
Freshwater pearls, we used 6~7mm
Chain, we used 10x5.5mm
Miyuki delica 11/0, we used gold
Charm, we used with flower
Calotte
Crimp beads
Nylon thread
Lobster clasp
Jumpring 4mm

Necklace 3 - Minimal necklace with connectors

Cut several pieces of thin chain. Place glass connectors between the chain pieces and connect them with jumprings.

Finish the necklace with a lobster clasp.

This style works for long necklaces, short necklaces, and chokers. Mix and match with your favorite glass charms to make it unique.
