Once done,<br>wrap the wire through the closest chain loop to make sure it stays secure. Do the same on either side.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When this is done and you can pull on the chains on each end, you can now continue to add beads until you find a suitable size. Once you have reached the length you desire, you can add a jump ring and clasp. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Check out the full tutorial <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/5XV-BjoXl80?si=qJtDefGvk_VxzHGw\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In this comprehensive tutorial, I\u2019ll show you how to create beaded chain perfection.Adding beads to a chain necklace, is this possible?
