This is a quick tutorial on how to make a gemstone bar necklace that can be changed so that you can have several different looks in a much less expensive way. Most people who sell gemstone beads sell half strings so you can get a really nice look without having to buy a full string. The bars I made for the tutorial are roughly 3 inches long. I used coral colored beads that ranged from about 36 mm, 8 mm blue bicone crystals, 8mm amazonite rondelles and also 4 mm bicone crystals, the wire is 22 gauge. When you change the centre part of the necklace, please ensure that the wire scroll closure is well secured so you don't lose the gemstone bar. If you prefer to make it NOT interchangeable then you can skip the part about the figure 8 scroll and attach the bar directly to the chain with closed loops. You can refer to my video "How to Wire Wrap Beads and Stones at    • How to Make DIY Wire Wrap Beads and S...   to see how to attach chain to closed loops.
