How To: Custom Charm Necklace

Designing your perfect necklace is easy! Follow these simple steps to ensure your order is exactly how you envision it.

Step 1: Choose Your Chain

Your chain is the foundation of your custom necklace. Select from our collection of high-quality, tarnish-free chains in different styles and lengths.

Optional: Want extra versatility? Add an extender for adjustable length!



Step 2: Select Your Charms

Make it yours! Choose charms that best complement your chosen chain style.

Choosing the Right Charms for Your Chain:

  • Thicker Chains – Charms are attached with jump rings, allowing for a fuller look. These can hold anywhere from 3 to 13 charms without feeling overcrowded.
  • Thin Chains – Charms must have built-in hooks or are attached with bails. On these, 1 to 3 charms create the best visual balance without looking cluttered.
  • Charm Size Variation – Mixing different sizes can create depth and dimension, making your necklace look more dynamic and stylish.

Helpful Tips:
✔ Odd numbers (3, 5, or 7 charms) create the best symmetrical look.
✔ Mix and match different themes to tell your unique story.

Step 3: Add Must-Have Accessories

To ensure your charms stay secure, consider adding:

  • Extra jump rings – great for easy adjustments.
  • Lobster clasps – a handy backup in case you ever need one.
  • Extenders – adjust the length of your chain for versatile styling.
  • Bails – ensure charms fit properly on thinner chains.
