Christmas is coming. All those men worried sick about getting the wrong goof gift for the women in their lives. Maybe a pretty pendant helps!

[chicachew]

@JohnChenGoogling I agree what a fabulous gift! ^_^ thank you!

[chicachew]

@NeverLandsNursery They are so pretty! I am about to order more!

[ssmb06]

I was in the same boat as you thank you so much for this video it was very helpful!

[chicachew]

@ssmb06 I also found that writing to the people at fusion beads asking what bails fit what pendants is most helpful!

Hi chicachew

Nice that you are showing how you make the necklace----good for you. My sister and I have been beading for YEARS and we sell all these stuff and much more complicated pieces at craft shows/fairs. Let me tell you just in case some one tries to threaten you or say that you can NOT make these jewelry, NO ONE can tell you what you CAN AND CAN NOT make unless she has a legal pattern on that SPECIFIC item. Bead away girl :)

[chicachew]

@GirlEuropean Thanks hun! This is right after I got my hair cut into that style for the first time ^_^

[pdxbeautiful]

This is an awesome video!! I want to make some now ^.^

[chicachew]

@pdxbeautiful You def should its so easy! Right now the chains are 15% off on Artbeads ^_^

[InsideOutElle]

eheh yes! I can't believe how cheap individual swarovski pendants are ^^ i like making my own b/c I can individualize it and it's SO cheap :) great video~

[chicachew]

@InsideOutElle Yes it blew my mind how affordable they were since I almost bought one from a blog for waaaaay too much! Thanks girl!

@chicachew

Whoo, I found them! Unfortunately the 9MM bail is out of stock, but I'll wait until it's back in stock, or just see if there are any other cool ones. Thanks for the replies and help! :) Now I have a good idea of what to buy and everything. Thanks x100! :)))

[chicachew]

@x3giiina Yay! I'm glad you found them! You must let me know what you end up getting/make a video response! ^_^

[x3giiina]

@chicachew

Can you tell me the specific name of the 2 different sized bails you showed in this video? I think I'll just stay on the safe side and get what you got, because I know what they look and fit like. -.- I can't seem to find them on fusionbeads.

[chicachew]

@x3giiina Search "sterling silver leaf pinch bail" or a smaller combination if those words, that should take you right to them! There is one larger size on there I did not purchase or show. I believe that one fits the 18-26mm but that's just a guess! Let me know if this helps!

[x3giiina]

Thanks for that very helpful video! Not only were all the sizes described, compared, etc., but the video quality was good and allowed me to see the crystals detailedly! :) Just one question, are there specific bail sizes for certain crystals, or can a bail go on any crystal with some adjusting?

[chicachew]

@x3giiina In my experience, I found that once you get past 12-14mm a smaller bail (less than 8mm) will probably not pinch completely together inside the pendant hole. It depends on the bail, the brand I'm sure. With the larger bails (More than 8mm) They will shut inside a smaller pendant, but you will have quite a bit of slide from front to back on the hole if that makes sense? I would say experiment and what I did was order a few of different sizes to see what was going to work. ^_^

hello! great video!!! You have the MOST informative video on swarovski crystal pendants i have seen...thanks so much for clarifying the measurements on the pendants and bails!!! i too have been bitten by these shiney cuties..and i'm not even a jewelry gal.

one quickie question: where did you get the heart necklace? i couldnt find it on those websites.

cant wait to see your next swarovski creation!! Any ideas? i am thinking of getting leaf-flower, sun-moon combo. LOL.

[chicachew]

@learningthis1 Oh gosh thanks! The chain is from Artbeads.com search flat heart chain necklace. It will come in finished or unfinished chain. I have the 16" finished chain in the skinnier gauge. I'm ordering the 18" next and probably the bracelet and some jump rings. I have thought about buying bulk unfinished chain, but i know ill just make 10 necklaces for myself! I need a matching bracelet! I want to make the leaf and flower pendant next, or a mothers necklace with my kids birthstones ^_*

[learningthis1]

@chicachew now why didnt i see that chain when i was searching at artbeads. LOL. oh wow, you must have so many ideas planned if you do get the bulk unfinished chain! =) hope you do a video on some of the pieces you will make....would love to see what you make for bracelets too. that birthstone necklace sounds too clever! thanks so much for your quick reply. btw, you look so stunning in the video. <3

[chicachew]

@learningthis1 I hope you ended up finding the chain I forgot to tell you to just search "flat heart chain" it will give you finished and unfinished. I just placed my order so hopefully I'll get another video up once everything comes! Did you end up ordering the leaf/flower or sun/moon? I just got an online coupon so I think they are having a sale on the swarovski elements! And thank you for the compliment! ^_^

[learningthis1]

@chicachew thank you for your follow up. =D yes, i did find the chain! i did see that sale too...really a good sale i think. i will definitely buy something but am kind of stuck on what size pendants to get....so have to do some measuring with a real ruler to check out actual size. One time i bought a 28mm heart and it was too massive for me. lol. cant wait to see your follow up video when you get the chance to do it! your ideas are so inspiring. <3
