DIY: Frozen Inspired Beaded Necklaces

Supplies Used:

Plastic Snowflake connector beads: 29mm x 25mm (purchased on eBay) – 1 needed per necklace

6mm plastic rondelle (round) beads (purchased on eBay)

        Fuschia   – 40 per necklace

        Aqua       – 20 per necklace

        Lt. Aqua – 20 per necklace

8mm split rings

Clear stretch cording (.5mm or 1mm) – cut to approximately 24-26″ per necklace to make knotting easier.  The thickness of cording depends on hole size of your beads.  I used both 1mm and .5mm for my necklaces.

Step 1:

Cut the cording to approximately 24″ length.  String beads as follows: Fuschia, Aqua, Fuschia, Lt. Aqua, Fuschia, Aqua, Fuschia, Lt. Aqua, etc.

Step 2:

Once all beads are strung, tie the ends together in a knot (double, triple, quadruple knot as needed).  Trim off excess cord.

Step 3:

The snowflake beads I bought have holes on two sides, but I want to use these as pendants, so I attached a split ring onto one hole. NOTE: Jump rings can also be used and will be much easier to attach, but I wanted something sturdier. The snowflakes I used are quite thick so attaching the split rings took some effort (and a few ruined split rings).  Attach snowflake to necklace by sliding the split ring between beads onto the cording.

These necklaces have approximately a 10″ drop plus the pendant (which measures just over 1″).

There are more Frozen inspired crafts made for this party.  I’ll be posting those soon!
