Making eye pins and chains look old

I have a necklace that I want to make but I don't have enough of the right colored eye pins or the right colored chain for the look I'm going for (kind of a vintage/aged look).  I was wondering if there was a way to take what I have and age them somehow.



The stuff on the right is what I have to work with (note; it's not silver...it's just cheap stuff from walmart) and the stuff on the left is what I want it to look similar to.

So does anyone have any ideas as to what I could do?  Or am I just going to be stuck going and buying new supplies if I want the aged look?
