Project details:

For this design, I used the ammonite coin & the Green Girl mermaid pendant to create an underwater-inspired necklace & bracelet. The apatite is the perfect shade of water blue & I love the way the orange pinch beads pop against the white pearls.

Using round nose pliers, make a bead link with a 2" piece of gold 20 game wire. Attach the mermaid focal to the bottom with a jump ring or loop the wire directly to it. Slide on a pinch bead, an ammonite coin, and another pinch bead. Make another Loop at the end & trim off any excess wire.
