Instructions

This finished necklace is 20.5 inches in length. Please watch our video: How to Bead Weave a Flower using CzechMates 2-Hole Dagger Beads.
  1. From what you learned in the video, make three flowers.
  2. Cut a piece of chain that is 3 inches. Loop it around two flowers, by going though the center circles of the bead woven flowers. Connect the ends of this chain by opening a jump ring and closing it around the two end links of this chain.
  3. Repeat this last step to attach the third flower in the same way. You now have the 3 flowers linked together (see photo).
  4. Cut a piece of chain that is 16 inches. Thread this chain through the center circle of one of the end flowers and then loop it around to form a double chain. Open a jump ring and attach it to both ends of this chain, close the jump ring. On to this jump ring, attach another jump ring. And add a third jump ring to that last one. To that final jump ring, attach a lobster clasp.
  5. Repeat the previous step for the other side. However, add one more jump ring, for a total of four to the ends of the chain.
