Instructions

To begin with you will need to remove the earring loops from any earrings, you can do this by simply undoing the loops with some pliers.

Add a new jump ring to each earring and also to any other items you wish to hang off the necklace.

These items have been attached to the 1/2 inch metal ring to create the pendant, you could recycle an old keychain or even some hardware supplies for the ring.
