6: Three larger jump rings.

7: Four small jump rings.

8: A lobster clasp.

Follow these steps to make your layered chain necklace:

1: Add one of the beads to the head pin.

2: Curl the top of the pin around the round nose pliers to form a loop.

3: Attach one of the larger jump rings to the top of the pin.

4: Slide the newly formed charm onto the shorter piece of chain.

5: Create a loop at one end of one of the pins using the round nose pliers.

6: Add one of the remaining three beads.

7: Create a loop at the other end of the pin to secure the bead in place.

8: Repeat steps 5-7 for the other two beads.

9: Join the bead charms together to form a chain using two of the small jump rings. Then split the longer chain in half.

10: Use one of the remaining small jump rings to attach the bead chain to one of the two necklace chains you just split.

11: Attach the other end of the bead chain to the other necklace chain using the last small jump ring.

12: Join the two chains together by sliding them onto one of the larger jump rings.

13: Repeat this for the other side of the necklace, adding the lobster clasp before closing the ring.

Now your layered necklace is finished! How cool!!
