Remember the toggle clasp pendants I post earlier this week?  A reader wanted to know how the clasp stayed put.  So here is the quick and easy tutorial with the itemized material list from Prima Bead  as requested by the company.  Note I only had closed jump rings from my Prima stash so I had to cut them. Use open rings if you can and save the closed ones for other uses.

Techniques to Know
How to open and close jump rings
How to make wire loops

Instructions
1. Make a long dangles with the head pins using the crystals as shown.  Make a loop at the top of the dangles and trim the wire ends with the cutters.
2. Make 2 shorter dangles with the heads pins again as shown.  Also complete loops at the top of these dangles.
3.  Opening the loops sideways, attach the dangles onto the "handle" of the toggle clasp with the longer dangle in the middle.
4.  Use the cutters to cut 4 jump rings so they become open jump rings. 
5.  Using the chain and round nose pliers, open a jump ring and connect the "handle" of the main part of the toggle to the bar.  It should sit to the left of the bar's loop. Close the jump ring.
6. Repeat so the next jump ring connects the main toggle to the left of the bar's loop.
7. Attach 2 jump rings to the bar's loop so they become bails for the chain.
8. Add the chain to the pendant.
