This choker measures 15 inches. To adjust the size just modify the length of faux leather cord used.

String one turquoise bead onto a head pin. Make a simple wire loop. Trim any excess wire, and set aside. Repeat this step to make two more pieces.
Take one simple wire loop and attach it to one loop of the dreamcatcher, by opening the loop same as you would a jump ring. Repeat with the two other turquoise beads.
Cut 15 inches of faux leather cord.
Slide the dreamcatcher slider onto the cord with the dreamcatcher facing the front of the shiny side of the cord so that the soft side will be against the neck.
Separate the clasp Move to one end of the cord, add a few drops of super new glue into the well of the clasp. Place the cord into the well. Move to the other side and repeat for the other end of the clasp. Keep the clasp separated as it dries. Allow to dry for at least 24 hours before wearing.
