Unique Beaded Necklace

YOU Can Easily Make!

Cassie Mae
These easy to make necklaces are a hit! A woman I used to work with had one on. So many co-workers asked her where she got it. She made it! Everyone was invited for an after work tutorial. I ended up making them for Christmas gifts and sold many at a craft fair and at a business. It made for extra cash for Christmas time! We could all use that!

Now you can make yourself an inexpensive and unique necklace. Women will love getting them as gifts! These necklaces instantly dress up a turtle neck!

You Will Need:

1 Roll of Railroad Yarn
Small Beads (that match the yarn colors you choose and have big enough holes to fit through the yarn).
Scissors
Yard Stick

Measure 22 rows of yarn at 48 inches.
Cut.

Take five inches of yarn and cut.
In the middle of the 22 rows of yarn, wrap and knot the five inches of yarn.
Make sure it is secure. This will hold the necklace together.
It will be in the back neck area.

Take two or three beads and thread on each strand of yarn. Knot one time after each bead.

The end result is gorgeous!

For fun each color I used I named and labeled each necklace. Example:) 1) Multimedia Necklace. 2) Black Rhapsody. I put my phone number and e-mail address on it in case customers wanted more!

*The railroad yarn you can find at Michaels or check your local stores. Online: www.caron.com

    Thanks! If anyone makes one please let me know. There are many other colors you can use. I'm just disappointed Wal-Mart quit selling the yarn. It was so convienent and they carried other colors they are not showing on the website anymore. But I see new fresh colors!
