Swarovski Crystal Slide Pendant

Happy Tuesday everyone! 

Today I am making a Swarovski Crystal Slide Pendant. These pendants are made with Filigree Loop Findings from Eclectica Beads located in Brookfield, Illinois. I came across their beading kits while attending the Bead and Button Show a few years ago. They also have an online store where you can purchase the findings for this project.

For diamond shaped pendant you'll need:

• 40 - 4 mm Swarovski Bicone Crystals (8 of each color you would like to use)
• 6 Filigree Loop Findings
• 28 gauge tarnish free wire
• 1 flat nose pliers
• 1 wire cutter

Cut approximately 24" of wire from your spool. String on 1 filigree loop finding, a 4 mm Swarovski crystal, alternating the finding with a crystal between as shown to the left. Both ends will end with the filigree findings.

Now for the next row, beginning with the darkest crystal end, feed the wire back through the end finding, add a dark crystal and then through the next finding. Continue until you reach the other end of the pendant.

Continue in this manner until you have added all of the Swarovski crystals all the way around the pendant.







To finish off the pendant, string the wire back through the next row of findings/crystals.

Next, feed the wire back through the center of the pendant and out between the end crystal. Pull the wire tight.

Snip the wire with wire cutters or shears as close to the pendant as possible. If needed, push the wire back into the center of the pendant.

String onto your favorite chain or cord.
