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.

  1. Begin by cutting off about two feet of thread. String on 7 paisley duo beads and the smaller side and one cymbal bead, making sure they are all facing the same way. Tie an overhand knot bringing it together.
  2. Turn the thread around and create a thread bridge on the back of one of the cymbals.
  3. Next string through the second hole of each paisley duo, adding a seed bead in between each paisley. Once you have come all the way around, tie off and weave in your tails.
  4. Open one jump ring and attach it to the cymbal bead and around the finished chain.
