This is a cute twist on your usual choker… here’s how to make a cute beaded charm choker…
This choker is really super cute! It features a diamond-shaped bead charm in the middle of some silver-tone rolo chain. It is designed to sit closely to your neck to show off the beaded feature. I think this piece looks great on its own and also layered with some longer necklaces. Please note that this tutorial contains affiliate links.
Collect up these tools and materials to make your cute beaded choker:
1: Five eye pins.
2: A selection of beads in different colours. I used glass seed beads.
3: Two pieces of chain. Each piece was approximately 20.5cm long.
4: Four small jump rings.
5: A lobster clasp.
Follow these steps to make your cute choker:
1: Add beads to one of the pins.
2: Bend the pin to form an angle with the beaded section.
3: Use the round nose pliers to create a loop at the top of the beaded section. This secures the beads in place.
4: Repeat steps 1-3 for the rest of the eye pins, using a different colour for each pin.
5: Attach four of the pins together to form a chain.
6: Attach the ends of the chain together to form a diamond shape.
7: Add the fifth eye pin to the middle of the diamond shape, this will add some extra stability to the form.
8: Attach the chains to either side of the diamond shape using two of the small jump rings.
9: Add a jump ring and the lobster clasp to one side of the necklace.
10: Add the other jump ring to the other side of the necklace to finish it off.
Now your cute choker necklace is finished! How will you wear yours?

Here are the tools and materials you’ll need to make your beaded heart charm necklace:
