Buy the materials here.

This is a great DIY activity to do with your kids! There’s a bunch of different prisms, chains and charms in the pack I linked to. You can spend hours piecing together different bits.

This is a general guideline in getting started…

Materials

  1. Prism pendant (large, any shape) with hole in the end
  2. Hooped metal jump rings (4-5 small or medium rings)
  3. Baby star charm (with hole)
  4. Smaller prism pendant (with holes on both ends)
  5. One larger round decorative ring
  6. Pliers
  7. Chain

STEP-BY-STEP:

  1. Use pliers to loop metal ring through smaller prism

2. Attach prism onto chain via another metal jump ring for better security

3. Use another metal jump ring to attach smaller prism

4. Hoop star and decorative ring through the same metal jump ring on bottom end of prism

6. Continue adding charms, hoops + prisms (provided in the pack) in the same way until you’re ready to hang it up!
