To night's story is how I make the jewelry.  Fist I get the supplies out.  The candle is cherry plums scented, not needed in the processes, but it is there anyway.










Looking over the options to see what beads to use.


Now pick the order, tonight I will use a light blue, a neutral brown, and a pearl.  I like doing a pattern in color and size. Then pick the metal, right now my option was silver or gold.  I went with silver.







Then I forget to turn off the flash after I put them on the pin.











Then I use the pliers and bend the pin.







Cutting off the excess.








 I put the next pin on and bend the cut end to a loop.








then put the next set of beads on the pin.















then repeat.










and repeat, FOCUS!







Check the length once in a while.  I have marks on my table measured to different lengths.
Some of the brown beads would not go on to the pin.











It gets longer with each pin.  Yes that's a big bang theory Lenard jump drive in the top of the photo.










Soon it reaches  20 inches.  All the brown beads with holes to small to fit on the pin and all the ends cut off.









Pause here and get called to go to the kitchen to reset the disposal that is clogged only to not have the right allen wrench, and then only to find a cloth had gone into it. Pull out the cloth and reset it again. I am the handy woman in the house.





Get the jump rings and clasp ready.











Finished necklace of blue and pearl bead chain ready to go on sale at etsy.com/waterfallandart.  Well it will be when I get a better photo of it.









That is the way I make the jewelry.  Some times I use chain, depending on my mood.
Like this one I made the other night with butterflies and pearl, also ready to put on Etsy as soon as I get photos.
