↓ Step-by-step

↓ Buy the supplies

Supplies you’ll need:

You will need: *1' Brown leather cord (I added a few products to pick from) *5 African Saucer Beads *7x8-9mm Porcelain Beads *2 Greek Antique gold beads *Natural Hemp *2 Crimp ends *2 Jump rings *1 Clasp

Step-by-Step Instructions:

Step 1

Don't cut your cord, I like to have extra to create my knots. String the beads onto the cord in the order shown. Create a loop with your cord and use the loop to create an overhand knot. You can add a touch of glue for added security. Trim off the excess cord. Do the same on the other side.

Step 2

Next, I cut 4 pieces of hemp for each side of the necklace. My pieces were about 1' long, I like to have extra. Feed the hemp through your leather loop and over. Take three strands and wrap them around the hemp and back down through each other to create a clean knot. Braid the hemp strands together.

Step 3

Bundle the ends together tightly and fit them into the crimp bead and crimp down. Cut off any extra hemp sticking out. You can use a touch of glue in the crimp end for extra security. Attach your jump rings and clasp.
