Easily transform a few beaded necklaces into one chunky neck piece. Stand out from the rest of the fashion crowd and add some Tom Binns inspired safety pins to keep your beads perfectly coiled. Check out the full steps below!
What you'll need:
Safety pins
Beaded necklaces
Neon spray paint
Clasp and Jump ring
Pliers
Beading cord
Step 1 - Spray paint a handful of safety pins and let dry.
Step 2 - Take your necklaces and if they're not already beaded string them leaving 2 inches of excess cord at each end.
Step 3 - Lay out your necklace strands and arrange them in the order you want them to hang when worn.
Step 4 - Using your pliers attach a clasp and hook with jump rings
Step 5 - In the order you arranged the strands, tie your necklaces to one another
Step 6 - As your necklace grows hold it up to make sure each strand lays correctly.
Step 7 - Attach your safety pins at random points throughout.
