Learn how to finish a simple necklace with ease and security. Beach-style glass looks amazing in necklace form displaying all the colors. These could wrap and be a bracelet too!

Supplies you’ll need:

  • beach-style rounds in 8mm (blue tones necklace) or 6mm (pastel necklace)
  • gold seed beads or faceted gold & smooth gold rounds
  • stringing wire
  • crimp tubes
  • wire protectors
  • crimp covers
  • clasp
  • twisted jump rings
  • Mykonos fish and sand dollar focals

Step-by-Step Instructions:

Step

Step 1

Cut 24" of stringing wire. The pastel necklace is 16" and the blue necklace is 18". Please string on enough beads in the order shown until the necklace fits you best. You could also wear these as a wrap bracelet.

Step

Step 2

Do this step on both ends of your necklace to finish it off. I show a differsnt clasp than what I used but it is still the same process. Image 1: Slide the stringing wire through the crimp bead then through the wire protector. Bring the wire protector through the loop of clasp. Bring the wire down through the other side if the wire protector andback down through the crimp bead. Image 2: Be sure the stringin wire is not twisted. Image 3: Use crimping pliers to crimp the crimp bead. Image 4: Trim some wire off and slide the rest of the tailback down through the beads. Image 5: Attach the crimp cover over crimped tube using pliers.

Step

Step 3

Use jump rings to attach charms or Mykonos focals.
