Instructions:

Cut a 5-inch and a 7 1/4-inch length of medium chain.
Make the following beaded links: one large flat gemstone link, two large acrylic links, and four mirror bead, faceted gemstone, and mirror bead links.
Connect the large flat gemstone link to the center of the two chains. Next connect an acrylic link to one side of the gemstone on the 5-inch chain. Connect the other end of the link to the 7 1/4-inch chain, leaving a wider gap between where the links are attached.
Repeat this for the remaining beaded links. After connecting the end links, there should be approximately two remaining at both ends of each chain.
Make 50 seed bead/E-bead mixed links each measuring 1 1/4 inches. Link 25 beaded links into a chain using 4mm jump rings. Repeat for the second set of 25 links.
Using 4mm jump rings, attach one end of each beaded link chain to the 5-inch and 7 1/4-inch chains.
Cut four 1 1/4-inch lengths of chain.
Using 4mm jump rings, attach a chain to each of the loops of the last two beaded links.
Use a 4mm jump ring to gather two chains together and attach a toggle clasp end. Repeat for the second set of chains and toggle end.

This is so pretty. I read thru the directions and they were very informative and easy to follow. I leArned to crochet by teaching myself just by reading directions without pictures so photos are a luxury not mandatory. I can't wait to get started on this beauty. Thanks for sharing this.

The tutorials you provide on your site are great, but we need more pictures. Pictures showing each step along the way especially. I know that Im not the only one that feels this way. I learn more by seeing the pictures than I ever do by just reading the instructions.
