Bronte Necklace

PROJECT PROJ-JB-N0004
Designer: Julie Bean
Skill Level: Beginner
This lovely collar necklace is not difficult to make. It uses simple beading and stringing techniques but the result looks complex because of the CzechMates 2-hole dagger beads that are used. The colors are soft and garden-inspired for a whimsical romantic look.
Instructions

Note: Components and tools listed within this INSTRUCTIONS box and the printer-friendly PDF, if available, may have been discontinued since this project was published. Refer to the PURCHASE COMPONENTS and TOOLS AND OTHER SUPPLIES sections for current availability.

You can choose to make this necklace as long as you like. The tubes of seed beads will provide enough beads where you do not have to worry about ordering more beads or running out if you choose to make it longer.
  1. First, cut and place 60 inches of thread onto your needle.
  2. Next, watch the video: Beading Tutorial: How to Make a Seed Bead, Dagger and Button Loop Necklace. This video will show you every step of the process for making this necklace (including how to tie off your threads). Enjoy!

Bronte Necklace
Beautiful necklace, instructions are easy to follow.

I was able to make this necklace in just a few hours. Instructions are easy to follow. Instructions were also given should you need to lengthen the necklace, which I did. Colors selected were very pretty and made a stunning necklace. So far, this has been one of my favorite designs.
