Hair Stick

Supplies:
  • wooden hair stick (http://www.manyhorses.com/store_hairsticks.htm the top two listings)
  • bead cap the same diameter as the rounded end of the stick (for example http://www.artbeads.com/base-metal-bead-caps-nickel.html)
  • 9 inches of chain (I used Blue Moon BM26195 70 inches from JoAnn's)
  • Crystals and head pins for decorating (I used 6mm and 3mm round faceted Swarovski Crystals in Siam and Silver Night)
  • Small eye screw
  • jump ring 
Picture
Completed hair stick
Put the bead cap over the rounded end of the wooden hair stick. Screw the eye screw through the hole in the bead cap into the hair stick so it holds the bead cap on (you may have to enlarge the hole in the bead cap, but that can be done by putting one part of your round nose pliers through the hole and twisting/pushing). Cut your chain into 2, 3 and 4 inch pieces (I opened links rather than cutting). Attach the three pieces of chain to the jump ring and the jump ring to the eye screw. Decorate the chains with crystals as desired.
