A lovely and light necklace with mother of pearl beads threaded onto beading wire and combined with a leather cord.
1
Thread beads onto the beading wire in the desired order. If you wish you can attach some crimp beads in the hole in the middle of some of the beads as a decoration. Do not squeeze these crimp beads flat.
2
Cut a piece of leather cord twice the desired length. Thread on a spacer bead in the middle of the leather cord and pull the cord back in through the bead to form a loop. Pull a crimp bead onto the wire and thread the wire through the loop of the leather cord and back through the crimp bead. Squeeze the crimp bead flat.
3
Do the same on the opposite end.
4
Glue the ends together and pull on a spacer bead down over the joint.
