Braided Bead Necklace + Earrings

Simple braided necklace

I used 36" x 3 strands of nylon beading thread. Braid about 2" and slide a bead onto one strand, continue braiding. To finish, I looped the threads through a jump ring, added a couple of crimps (3 stands wouldn't fit through 1 crimp), laid strands back onto itself and wrapped with wire to secure the ends and trimmed threads close to wire wrap.
