The necklace you’ve always needed, here’s how to make a beaded curve necklace

This necklace is made using some memory wire and colorful beads added in a cool pattern.

You will need the following tools and materials to make this necklace:

1: Pliers. You will need your cutting pliers, flat nose pliers and round nose pliers to make this necklace.

2: Two pieces of cord.

3: Four crimp ends.

4: Four jump rings.

5: A piece of necklace length memory wire cut into a half circle.

6: A lobster clasp.

7: Beads of your choice. I used these different colored seed beads.

Follow these steps to make your beaded curve necklace:

1: Create a loop at one end of the memory wire using the round nose pliers.

2: Begin adding seed beads in your pattern of choice.

3: Continue adding beads until there is approximately 1cm (o.4 inches) of un-beaded wire.

4: Create a loop at the other end using the round nose pliers, this will secure the beads on the wire.

5: Add a crimp end to each end of the two pieces of cord. Do this by folding each side of the crimp around the cord using the flat nose pliers.

6: Attach each of the cords to either side of the beaded wire using two of the jump rings.

7: Add one of the jump rings to the other end of one of the cords and attach the lobster clasp. Secure the clasp in place by closing the jump ring.

8: Add the remaining jump ring to the other side of the necklace on the end of the second cord. Once you’ve attached this jump ring, the necklace is finished and ready to wear!

Here’s another version I made using leather cord and smoky quartz feature beads.
