Rose Gold Filled Unfinished Necklace Chain Collection, 1 Foot

First, how many necklaces are you making? You need at least 2 feet for one necklace. Unfinished chain is sold in 12 inch lengths (1 foot), as one continuous strand. For cable chains that allow jump rings on each end, see tip 1 below. For curb, box, or tiny cable chain that is too small for jump rings, see tip 2 below.

Tip 1. Select the clasp, jump rings, and pliers from our supplies section if needed. Use wire cutters to cut the chain to your desired length. Next, connect a jump ring to one end of the chain by twisting it open and closed with pliers. Lastly, connect a clasp to the other end of the chain with a jump ring.

Tip 2. Select your clasps, jump rings, crimp ends with loops, and pliers from our supplies section if needed. First, use wire cutters to cut your desired length. Next, use pliers to hold the crimp end by the round ring and feed one end of the chain into the tube. Squeeze the tube with your pliers to tightly secure the crimp end around your chain. Repeat steps to finish the other end. Lastly, attach the clasp to one of the crimp end loops by opening and closing a jump ring with pliers.
