These Mother of Pearl letter charms make it so easy to create a custom piece of jewelry-perfect for gift giving! For this design, I paired the letter charms with gemstones, seed beads, and leather cord to create a personalized necklace.

↓ Step-by-step

Supplies you’ll need:

  • Mother of Pearl Letter Charms
  • Leather Cord
  • Assorted Seed Beads & Gemstones
  • Jump Rings
  • Super Glue
  • Cord Ends
  • Lobster Clasp
  • Crimp Tubes & Covers
  • Silver 24 Gauge Wire

Step-by-Step Instructions:

Step

Step 1

Begin with a piece of beading wire about 4.5" long. Make a loop at one end & secure with a crimp tube & cover. Slide on the beads in the order shown. I used 6mm round jump rings to attach the letter charms. Once you've strung on your beads, make a loop at the other end of the wire & secure with a crimp tube & cover.

Step

Step 2

Slide the end of a 10" piece of leather cord through the loop of the beading wire about 1/4". Wrap wire around the two pieces of cord to secure. Repeat on the other side of the necklace.

Step

Step 3

Finish the ends with glue-in cord ends.
