Turquoise Nugget Bolo Necklace
About this design:
This eye catching color is sure to get you ready for Summer! For this bolo, I chose to have 2 chokers with slides slipped onto the front centers of both. You can just string all of your slides on into their general place, then wrap around your neck and move as needed :)
Buy the supplies:
The products in this design are listed below.
Step-by-Step Instructions:
|
Step 1: String on your slides. |
|
Step 2: Set up your necklace on your work surface and tie your bow in it's approximate place so that you can determine if you need to trim any cord off before glueing on the tips. |
|
Step 3: Glue your cord into your tips using Lima Studios 5-minute epoxy. See Tip: Make a Bolo Necklace |

S Langley says:The finished bolo shows separation between the 6 barrel beads – did you secure them on the suede lace or they just float around?…. I like the separation. Having fun with all the different styles.
