One of the coolest reasons to use resin beads is that you can make extremely comfortable jewelry because the beads, even if they are on the large side, are very light-weight. I combined pumpkin and taupe colored faceted resin beads with waxed linen cording and connected them all together using a macrame staple technique, the square knot.

You'll need:

24 - 9x6mm Pumpkin colored resin beads
9 - 9x6mm Taupe colored resin beads
9 feet of black waxed linen cord
1 Copper Wire and Resin Bead Clasp
Scissors
Quilting pins
Small bulletin board

*The resin faceted beads came from Natural Touch Beads.
