Making Snap Ring Jewelry
- 1). Place a jump ring onto one end of the chain with the pliers. Do not close the jump ring yet.
- 2). Place one half of the closure clasp onto the open jump ring. Close the jump ring.
- 3). Make the pendant by placing the gemstone on a flat work surface with the flat side of the stone facing down. Position the setting over the stone and push it down firmly onto the stone. This should set the stone into the setting. Use the pliers to carefully squeeze each prong to make sure it is tight.
- 4). Place the chain through the loop in the pendant.
- 5). Place the other jump ring onto the other end of the chain. Add the other half of the closure clasp to the open jump ring and close the jump ring with the pliers to finish the necklace.
