Positive Vibes Necklace
About this design:
With this necklace, experience the mind clearing & stress relieving properties of Amber, as well as the soothing energy from the Amazonite.
What you’ll need: (buy products below)
- 24 gauge silver wire
- Amazonite pendant
- Amber chips
- Amazonite round 6mm
- 22" piece of Waxed Linen 3ply
- Lobster clasp
- Round nose pliers
Additional Images:
Step-by-Step Instructions:
|
Step 1: Wrap a piece of the wire a few times through the hole on the Amazonite pendant, and make a loop at the top with the round nose pliers. See Tip: Wire Wrap a Charm |
|
Step 2: String the pendant onto the center of the waxed linen. On each side of the waxed linen, string on 22 amber chips, and then 25 amazonite beads, for a total of 44 amber chips & 50 amazonite beads. |
|
Step 3: Tie a knot on both ends to secure the beads. On one side, tie the waxed linen through the loop of a lobster clasp, and secure the knot with a drop of glue. With the other side of the waxed linen, you can either tie a knot around a jump ring, or form a loop with the waxed linen, as I did. |
