Here’s another cute way to upcycle your broken headphones, a double strand necklace!

If you aren’t sick of my headphone recycling tutorials yet here is another way you can upcycle them into beautiful jewelry. This one gives you all the steps you need to take to make a double strand headphone necklace.

You will need the following tools and materials to make your double strand headphone necklace:

1: Pliers. You’ll need cutting pliers, flat nose pliers and round nose pliers

2: A pair of broken headphones. I used the top part of the headphones that I used in the finger knit bracelet tutorial.

3: Four crimp ends.

4: Four small pieces of chain, one pair longer than the other. My headphone cords weren’t quite long enough to fit around my neck so I added some small pieces of chain to the end of each to make them fit.

Follow these steps to make your double strand necklace out of recycled headphones.

1: Cut the headphone cords using the cutting pliers to separate them and remove the ear buds.

2: Add a crimp end to either end of the headphone cords, folding them in place using your flat nose pliers.

3: Add one pair of chains to either end of one of the cords using two of the larger jump rings.

4: Add the second pair of chains to the other cord using another pair of larger jump rings.

5: Add the beads to each of the strands.

7: Secure the chains together using a smaller jump ring on either side of the necklace.

8: Attach the clasp using another smaller jump ring.

9: Add the remaining jump ring to the other side of the necklace to finish it.

Now your double strand necklace made from recycled headphones is finished! I love coming up with creative ways to save broken products from the trash.
