This bag charm is there to remind you to keep calm during difficult times.

Supplies you’ll need:

  • Patricia Healey Patience focal
  • waxed cord
  • 4mm multi-stone faceted gemstone rounds
  • Baroque style shell pearl
  • Linhasita cord in .35mm and 1mm thickness
  • faceted gold rounds
  • soldered jump rings
  • ring clasp

Step-by-Step Instructions:

Step

Step 1

For the heart and pearl strand. Cut 13" of .35mm cord. Slide a soldered jump ring to the middle of the cord. Take both cord tails and tie a knot. String the beads on in the order shown. Tie a knot at the end. Trim any excess cord.

Step

Step 2

For the square knot and faceted gold strand, cut 2 pieces of 20" of 1mm cord. Slide a soldered jump ring onto the center of both cords. Create a knot with all cords. Trim off one cord tail. Tape down the end to hold the cord tight. Slide on a gold faceted round, create two square knots in between each gold round. I used 10 gold rounds. Tie a knot at the end, trim the cord.

See Tip: Tying the Square Knot

Step 3

Slide the jump rings of the charms you made onto the clasp. Slide the patience focal onto the clasp.
