How To Make a Fabric and Beads Necklace

As promised in the earlier entry, here's the 'how to':

You need:

A cloth. Sew into a tube
Ribbon
Beads (wooden beads are quite expensive. I used plastic beads)
Needle and thread
Scissors



Step 1: Leave about 2" from the end of your cloth tube and tie a knot.

 


Step 2: Insert a bead, and tie another knot to seal.



Step 3: Repeat step 1 and 2 until you reach you desired length. Cut excess of cloth.



Step 4: Sew ribbon at both end. You can make it 'adjustable' by cutting the ribbon into half. By doing so, the necklace can be tied and therefore adjustable.



Step 5: Accessorize. I have some ribbon flowers which i made for hairclips. Just attach the flower with glue and walla! Your fabric necklace is now ready!




And, that's my girl posing with the necklace :)
