Lariat Necklace Projects

Lariat necklaces are a fashionable twist on the normal necklace. Use beads, chain, wire, and jewelry findings to make your own lariats.
Cyrstal Bead & Chain Lariat
Many of the Lariat style necklaces I’ve seen in the magazines are simple chains with a bead dangling from each end. The look is simple yet sleek. This inspired my Crystal Bead & Chain Lariat design.
Bead & Wire Lariat
Create your own simple elegance with this bead and wire lariat design.
Beaded Bottle: Part 2
Add strang, fringe, and finish the beaded bottle necklace.
Long, Long Lariat
The longer the lariat the more options there are for wearing it. With this super long lariat design, you can wear it in a number of ways.
Hematite Lariat
Though not a new design, lariat necklaces are making a come back. The basic design dictates that the lariat connect in the front. Otherwise, designs vary greatly. This lariat design I put together ties in the front and combines hematite and semi-precious beads.
