I’ve already shown you how to make a cute daisy chain necklace, but here’s a way to add a bit of edge to your floral bead designs… a daisy chain choker necklace! This tutorial gives you all the steps to follow to make a beaded choker necklace using glass seed beads and tiger tail wire. Please note that this tutorial contains affiliate links.

You’ll need these tools and materials to make your beaded flower choker:

1: Pliers. I used my cutting, round nose and flat nose pliers.

2: Tiger tail wire, because of the looping to create the flowers, you need a bit extra than the intended length. I cut about 1.5m of wire and had some leftover that I will use in another design.

7: Pull the wire tight to create a circle shape with the beads. Make sure you shift the beads down as you tighten the wire so that the circle sits closely to the green beads.

8: Add a single bead to the wire in your third colour, this will be the middle of the bead.
