Leather jewellery


Leather necklace with glass beads

This is how you do it

Cut different kinds of leather cords which length wise fit a long chain. Gather the cords with knots as you go along and pull on glass beads and silver rings. Also, on the cords put on spirals made with a wire working tool set.


1

Attach the silver-plated wire onto the base and attach the mandrel. Feel free to use different size mandrels.
