Chevron
Eyeglass Chain
Eyeglass chains are all the rage right now and we've designed a playful
one that will go with just about anything! We used all silver accents,
but keep in mind that you could create a whole new look with using gold!
This chain measures approximately 24" when finished.
Materials Used:
90 Small Chevron Beads (#24058) Qty:
92 10/0 SL Clear Triangle Beads (#J-3849)
Qty:
30" SoftFlex Clear (#49106) Qty:
2 S/P Crimp Beads (#50046)
Qty:
2 S/P Eyeglass Holders (#50084)
Qty:
Directions:
Begin by stringing a crimp bead onto your SoftFlex
wire, looping it through one hole in your eyeglass holder, then back through
the crimp bead. Crush your crimp bead, leave aa small tail and cut
off the excess SoftFlex.
String on a 1/0 triangle bead and hide your tail of left over SoftFlex,
then string on a chevron bead, a triangle...and continue until your desired
length.
We strongly recommend not making your chain any shorter than 24" since
they don't seem to hang right when they are shorter. Repeat the crimp
bead process with the other eyeglass holder and you're all done!
Enjoy!
