Crafty jewelry: Multi-Strand Ribbon Necklace tutorial

 

Materials Needed:

• Purple Ribbon to Bead
• Large Eyed Metal Beads
• Glass Beads with Metal Centers
• Jump Rings
• Clasp
• Needle Nose Pliers
• Fabric Glue
• No Fray Liquid, Clear Nail Polish, or a Lighter

Instructions:

1. Begin with a spool of Ribbon-to-Bead, open the package, and remove the ribbon from the spool.

2. Use the attached wire needle to add beads to the ribbon.  Create your first strand of ribbon and bead.

3. Create three strands of ribbon with beads.  Make each strand of ribbon slightly longer than the last.  Helpful Hint: Always cut from the bottom of the spool so that with each strand that you make you can use your attached wire needle.

4. Use fabric glue to attach the jump rings to the ends of each of the ribbon strands.

5. Attach the jump rings to a finishing clasp.

6. Add additional jump rings for extra support.

7. Your multi-strand necklace is ready to be worn.
