Tin Cup Necklace

Finish the Tin Cup Necklace

6. Repeat step 3 and 4.

7. Repeat step 5, 3, and 4 until you’ve strung on about 6 to 7 beads (depending on the length of the necklace you are making and the size of the beads.)

8. Measure approx. four inches and tie an over hand knot.

9. Finish the necklace with another bead tip.

10. Add a spring ring clasp on one end and a jump ring on the other end.

11. Finally, I recommend hanging these necklaces when they are stored so the cord straightens out and doesn’t kink.

A simple necklace to make, this makes a fun gift and, if you sell your work, inexpensive impulse purchases for your customers.
