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.

This choker measures 16.5 inches. To modify the length, simply modify the size of leather cord respectively. You will also need a toothpick or scrap of wire for this project.
  1. Begin by cutting four cords of leather 16 inches each.
  2. Using a toothpick or scrap of wire place a dab of E6000 into the well of one cord end. Gather all four cord ends and place them into the well. Allow to dry about 20 minutes before moving on.
  3. To each cord slide on one noodle bead.
  4. Next place a dab of E6000 into the well of the other cord end. Gather all four cord ends and place them into the well. Allow to dry about 20 minutes before moving on.
  5. Open one jump ring and attach it to one cord end and to one loop of the magnetic clasp. Close the jump ring. Repeat on the other side and you're all done. I recommend allowing the necklace to fully dry at least 24 before wearing to allow it to set.
