Making Links for A Handmade Necklace

This is John Mendez with Expert Village. Has a jump ring on the end that has a seam and we will just open that up and slip it on to one end then slip it on this one is closed, I have to cut it. This one is a closed piece so we are going to make a little seam. We can just open that up and it can go straight onto the large jump ring and clasp on to the other side or you can add it to this end which is the smaller end. Either one works, it's just a general, it's just your own preference. Personally I like the smaller end so that when you have your finished piece you can link it to your last jump ring. And this is a really small necklace for very tiny people. But as you add more lengths with your crystals or without you will get a completed necklace just like that.
