Valentine's Day is right around the corner!

Are you looking for a fun, trendy gift you can give your significant other, sister, best friend or mom? Forget candies, chocolates, flowers or store-bought jewelry and make this beautiful and easy necklace instead!

This is perfect to be festive and dress up any outfit.
Supplies Needed:
2" Head Pins
​3" Eye Pins
Approximately 20" of Silver Chain
6mm Jump Rings
Clasp of your choice (I used a Lobster Claw Clasp)
3 different colors of Seed Beads ( I used size: 6/0 )

I used all silver findings to make this necklace, but you could of course use whatever finish you would like!

Tools Needed:
3 in 1 Plier
Round/ Needle Nose Plier
Flat/Chain Nose Plier
Side Cutters

Optional: 
Nylon Jaw Pliers to straighten out your head/eye pins.
One Step Looper (In the Size of your Choice) This tool is a lifesaver when it comes to projects like this! Can't recommend it enough!



The Amazon Prime membership program offers special benefits for just $99 per year:
* Instantly watch thousands of movies and TV episodes
* Borrow Kindle books
* Get unlimited FREE two-day shipping (no minimum order size) (MY FAVORITE!)


Pattern:
In this necklace I used, Blue, Green and Silver for my seed bead colors. You can use whatever color seed beads you would like! To understand the pattern better, I will use A, B and C to dictate the order for the head pins. Just substitute for the colors you use! (To follow my video/pictures, A- Silver B-Blue C-Green)

Head Pin Order:
#1 1A , 1B , 9 A
#2 1A , 1B , 4A , 2C , 4A
#3 1A , 1B , 4A , 4C , 3A
#4 1A , 1B , 4A , 5C , 3A
#5 1A , 1B , 3A , 5C , 4A
#6 1A , 1B , 4A , 5C , 3A
#7 1A , 1B , 4A , 4C , 3A
#8 1A , 1B , 4A , 2C , 4A
#9 1A , 1B , 9 A


Wrap a loop at the end of all of your head pins.

Slide one B Seed Bead on to the eye pin. Alternate between one seed bead and your wrapped head pins.
Finish your eye pin with a wrapped loop.

Attach your chain and clasp with your jump rings. 

That's it!

Pretty simple, even if you aren't an avid jewelry-maker.

If you try this out, and make your own heart necklace, I'd love to see it!
