9. Now simply slip the bail of the heart pendant down to the center of your necklace, and you are done.

The extra hemp on either end of the necklace work as your clasp. Just tie them into a bow or other knot when you put it around your neck.

Though the beads are fairly large, some as large as 15mm, they are very light-weight and comfortable to wear. The addition of the copper clay heart pendant makes this a truly unique mixed-media piece, but you could add any number of different pendants to the center of the bamboo beads.
