Step 2

Open the Jump Rings


- Use two pairs of pliers to open a jump ring. Hold the jump ring with one pair of pliers on each side of the split.

- Twist the jump ring gently sideways, rather than pulling it apart, to maintain its shape.

Attach the Jump Ring to a Charm


- Slide the open jump ring through the loop or hole on the charm. Make sure it’s secure and properly positioned.

Step 4

Connect the Charm to the Necklace


- With the charm already attached to the jump ring, slide the jump ring onto the necklace chain at the desired position.
- This can be done by finding a spot between the chain links or adding it directly to the main chain section.

Step 5

Close the Jump Ring


- Use the pliers again to close the jump ring by twisting it back into place. Ensure the ends of the jump ring meet securely without a gap to prevent the charm from slipping off.
- You may need to press the ends together slightly to ensure a tight closure. 

Repeat for Additional Charms


- Continue the process for each charm you wish to add to the necklace. Space them evenly or arrange them according to your desired design.
- Check each jump ring to ensure they are securely closed. 

Step 6

Final Adjustments and Inspection


- Once all charms are attached, inspect the necklace for secure connections. Adjust the positioning of the charms if needed to balance the design.
- Check that all jump rings are tightly closed and that no charm is at risk of falling off.

Step 7

Wear Your Charm Necklace or Bracelet


- Your charm necklace or bracelet is now complete! Wear it to show off your personalized creation, or package it nicely if it’s intended as a gift. 

Following these steps will help you create a beautiful and personalized charm necklace or bracelet just like in the video.
