Learn To Make A Swarovski Crystal Cross Necklace

This tutorial I have used, and it is not difficult at all. I had extra bicones from a necklace I repaired for a friend, so I used them to make this cross pendant, and then it became a gift for another friend.

If I do this again I want to try to find a more pliable headpin for ease of use. Give this one a try, it is pretty easy.
