Baroque Beauty Pearl Necklace Tutorial
Modified from a design created by Swarovski's Create Your Style Design Team
Designer Tips
- Using beading wire, slip on one crimp bead and one end of the Maker's Toggle, and crimp to close. Add crimp cover. New to jewelry-making? See Jewelry Basics 101 (PDF).
- String beads in desired pattern. For a 16-18" necklace, string number of beads shown (44 pearls total). For a 24" necklace, string 40 pearls for the longer section, and 15 pearls for the shorter section. Exact quantity may vary depending on size of 3 side beads used and other factors -- please measure your finished necklace before adding final crimp bead. (Bead stoppers make it easy to move your design without spilling beads.)
- Slip on a crimp bead and the other end of the Maker's Toggle and crimp to close. Add crimp cover.
