Classic in black

Every woman should, beside a little black dress, have a little black necklace.

Material and tools:

  • „diamond" black beads 4mm
  • „diamond" black glass beads 6mm
  • round glass black beads 10mm
  • anthracite needles
  • black thread
  • a clasp for two lines of anthracite (new)
  • a black chain
  • anthracite crimp beads
  • pliers for jewellery

1 Thread the beading thread through both hooks on the clasp and then tighten with the crimp bead. Start placing beads on the thread: 9 smallest beads, then one 6mm and another 10mm.

2 Cut the chain in few pieces of 16 rings. Thread the cut piece on nylon up to the largest pearl.

3 Continue placing the beads, one bead 6mm, 9 beads 4mm and then again one 6mm. Now place the other end of the chain and repeat the process to the end.

4 Thread a 6mm bead on to the needle and then through the middle hook on the chain.

5 Use pliers to cut off the extra of the needle, 4-5mm above the bead, and twist the rest into a loop around the chain.

6 Finally, fasten the other end of the clasp in the same way you did at the beginning.
