As a gift to my beloved readers, here are some basic instructions for "My Broken Heart" - a pendant/clasp necklace that is totally unique!

Materials

16g dead soft, round wire

Bulk Chain, 16+ inches (pendant will be approximately 1" across - cut chain to the length you want your overall necklace to be.)

Begin by cutting two sections of wire - one 3" long, one 2 1/2" long.

Use a round nosed pliers to create a loop on each end of the 2 1/2" wire.

Bend the wire into half of a heart shape, with the loops facing UP. (If you set the finished shape on a table, the loops will be at a right angle to the table top.)

Using the 3" section of wire, make a tiny loop at one end of the wire, and use the round nosed pliers to create a small "S" hook. (Steps & photos 1-3 in this tutorial.) Repeat on the other end, with the hook facing the other side of the wire.

Bend this section into a 1/2 heart shape. Clasp the heart together by inserting the hooks into the loops in the first section.

Add chain to the pendant/clasp using jump rings. That's it!
