DIY Hardware Necklace

Merry Christmas, ya filthy animal! 
Your gift this year is two DIY posts in one week. (I know I'm like 2 weeks early, but 'tis the season... right? Plus, Hannukah is happening RIGHT NOW, so...)
Remember the days when I had the time and ability to post 5 times a week?! Old times were good times. 
But new times aren't so bad. I mean... I have a life these days, and that's pretty cool. Definitely not mad about that.

Last time we met, I told you about my adventures in the Home Depot. I failed to mention that in addition to plumbing parts, I also purchased some small pieces of hardware that caught my eye. Yes, sometimes hardware catches my eye. No, I do not think this is peculiar, hardware jewelry is in and I'm on the train.
Get with it, guys.  

I used one variety of such items to create this radsicle geometric necklace:
(Can we make 'radsicle' a thing? Please?!)

Ya, I know. It looks good. 

And, ya, that is a nebulae backdrop. I got this excellent book at The Strand called 'Far Out: A Space and Time Chronicle' and now it is my favorite thing in the entire world ever. It's a coffee table book featuring images of all the nebulae and it makes me so super happy. Let me describe how I feel when I open this book using a rage face:

Ya, it's like that. 

Supplies:

1. A package of 11/2" Flat Corner Braces from the Home Depot. 

2. Silver chain from Michael's.

3. Silver jumps from Michael's. 

4. Silver clasp from Michael's.

5. Pliers from Toho Shoji. 

Step 1:

1. Cut two small pieces of silver chain. 

Step 2:

Use the pliers and the jumps to attach one side of each chain to the outer holes of the hardware pieces. 

Step 3:

Attach two longer pieces of chain to each outer hole of the top hardware piece. 

Step 4:

Connect a metal jump to the other end of one of the long chain pieces and the clasp to the second. 

Be my friend, yo.
