You will need:

- drill for beads;

- clamps for nodes;

- silk threads;

- universal glue;

- mother of pearl beads;

- pendants in the form of starfish;

- scissors;

- tape measure;

- pliers

Step 1

Measure the volume of the hips and bite the length of the chain link with pliers (we have about 90 cm).

Step 2

Spread a 90 cm length of the chain straight and attach a 35 cm chain to the third link using pliers.

Step 3

Having departed from the third link 30 cm, attach the other end of the short chain.

Step 4

At the other end of a long chain (90 cm), use a connecting ring to attach a thin chain of approx. 12 cm for a fastener which will give the chance to vary the volume of a chain belt.

Step 5

On a short (intermediate) chain (35 cm) with the help of connecting rings suspend pendants in the form of starfish.

Step 6

Using a bead drill, expand the holes in the beads so that they are easier to string.

Step 7

Tie a knot at the end of the silk thread and use a glue to attach a clip to it (see step 8). String the beads onto the thread.

Step 8

At the other end of the thread, use glue to fix the clamp and leave it to dry.

Step 9

Attach the thread with beads using the connecting rings to the same link as the chain with starfish.

On the main chain measure approx. 45 cm and attach the second end of the thread.

Done!
