I have always liked Anne Boleyn. Because I am a fan, I decided to make myself a necklace similar to hers (it also helps that my last name also starts with a B).

Materials

Letter (You can use a different letter than B; I used a wooden letter I found in a box of letters at the hobby shop)

Pearl Beads (round for the necklace and tear drop for the charm)

Small metal screws with rounded top (I found them in the hardware department)

Clasps for the necklace

Metallic Gold Paint

Super Glue

Wire or string for necklace

How to Make

1) Screw rounded metal screws into the B (one center top-to attach to necklace, and three evenly spaced on bottom of B-for tear drop pearls.

2) Because the wood splintered a bit when I put in the crews, I superglued the area and the screws stayed in place.

3) Paint B gold

4) Attach tear drop pearls to bottom three screws and clamp shut so they do not fall off

5) Place charm on string and add round pearls evenly so B is in center

6) Attach clasps to ends of string

Materials

Pearl Beads (round and tear drop)

Thin Gold Wire

Gem Stones

Decorative Metal Accessory

How to Make

1) Attach hook and tear drop pearl on opposite ends of the decorative accessory

2) Add pearls with wire in a decorative pattern
