Tutorial on making your own Waist Chain to wear on a motorcycle - beads and charms

Supplies:


Silver Chain
Large size lobster clasps (2)
winged heart beads
6mm pearls (clear)
4mm crystals
22 guage silver wire


Before making any project, I place my beads (and charms) and whatever I am using in place before I assemble to ensure that I have enough beads, etc and I can change the pattern, if required.

Start by making the sections. I use the wire wrap technique
And make several crystal, wing, crystal and also
a single clear bead segment




With a segment of chain attached to the lobster clasp on 
each end
and make it as long as needed




Mine is approximately 12 inches long and is intended
to wear between two loops on the waiste of my jeans 
across my hip
so when I ride my motorcycle, you 
will see the pretty hip chain
that I made


I have also made these as gifts for my lady
rider friends to also enjoy




Make it your own unique style 
using different beads and charms




The waist chain below I made for 
an H-D riding friend who wanted
a simple chain
and I bought an engraved
connector at Michael's


She loved it!
