Here’s a quick and fun way to use bits of chain to create jewelry tassels that can be used as accents or focal points. You can make them as big or small as you like, use all the same chain or a mixture of chains. Adding beads, pearls, crystals or charms to the ends will only serve to add to the interest.
This Nancy Tobey focal bead has been in my stash for a while and I thought it could use something dangling below it as an accent. All it needs to be a necklace is a bit of cord to string it on. Slightly smaller tassels would make great earrings.
We’d love to see your projects based on this tutorial at my Facebook page in the “Your Creations” album.
Enjoy the video. Happy creating!

I love that! It looks kind of Victorian, therefore would lend itself to a steampunk ensemble.
Ooooo, you are right. I hadn’t even thought of it that way. Now I MUST go finish it. 🙂
