Okay, so, I’ve been wanting to get into the whole jewelry thing, and I thought a cool necklace would be a good start. I’m a Leo, so I figured, why not get something with a lion on it? That’s how I decided to make a tiny Leo chain for myself.
First, I started looking around online. I just typed in stuff like “men’s leo chain” or “tiny lion necklace”. I found a bunch of options, some were really expensive, like over forty bucks, and others were way cheaper, like around nine or ten dollars. There were gold ones, silver ones, some with just the lion head, others with the full lion, and even ones with the Leo constellation. It was kinda overwhelming, honestly.
I decided to go with a simple silver lion head pendant ’cause I like silver more than gold. And I didn’t want anything too flashy, you know? Then I needed a chain. I read somewhere that thin chains, like under 3mm, are good for guys who are just starting to wear necklaces. Sounded good to me, so I looked for a thin silver chain around that size.
After a lot of browsing, I finally found what I was looking for. And after that, I ordered the pendant and the chain from different places, ’cause one place had the pendant I liked, and the other had a chain that seemed decent. I didn’t go for the cheapest options, but I also didn’t splurge on the really expensive stuff.
While I was waiting for the stuff to arrive, I started thinking about how I was gonna put it all together. I don’t have any special tools or anything, so I just used a small pair of pliers that I found in my toolbox. It was a little tricky to get the pendant onto the chain because the loop on the pendant was kinda small. It took some patience, but I finally managed to get it on.
And that’s pretty much it!
- Searched online for “men’s leo chain” and similar phrases.
- Found a ton of options, from cheap to expensive.
- Chose a simple silver lion head pendant.
- Looked for a thin silver chain (under 3mm).
- Ordered the pendant and chain from different places.
- Used regular pliers to put the pendant on the chain.
Now I have my own custom tiny Leo chain! It’s not perfect, but it’s mine, and I think it looks pretty cool. Plus, it was a fun little project. Maybe I’ll get into making more jewelry in the future. Who knows?
