Using pins, beads and a ready made choker wire, create this easy Egyptian inspired necklace.
Using pins, beads and a ready made choker wire, create this easy Egyptian inspired necklace.
Put a tiny dab of glue on the end of a headpin and slide on a Sz 6 Seed Bead, followed by a Sz 11 Seed Bead and then the Bugle Bead.
Leave to dry for a few minutes. Acrylic glue is much better than superglue as it will not taint your beads, like some superglues can.
Using round nose pliers turn the very top of the pin into a loop, making sure it is tightly closed.
A good tip is to make your pliers with a dot of permanent pen so you can make each loop the same size time after time.
Make approx 95 of these pins.
Unscrew the ball from the end of the choker and thread the pins on alternately with the cube beads, leave a tiny space at the end for the choker to fasten.
Wear with pride!
