To start, choose your beads, play with different shades, effects (smooth or faceted), sizes, shapes... Here we took a thread of donut beads in Tourmaline for the side and back part of the necklace. For the front, we used beads in Garnet, Labradorite, Amethyst, gold metal beads, beads mounted in strawberry quartz, and a drop-shaped cut stone in Garnet.

For the threading thread, use Griffin silk thread, very strong, flexible for a comfortable necklace to wear. It is already mounted with a needle to facilitate threading!

Tie the end of the thread to the clasp, make several knots to secure the assembly. Keep a small piece of thread to pass through the first beads at the end of the assembly.

Thread a metal bead in which you can slide/hide the knot.

Start threading the beads... Here we have created a central part (mix of beads with the drop) that measures about 12cm. For a 40cm necklace, you will thread 14cm of Tourmaline beads.

Once the first beads are threaded, start the central assembly. Alternate metal beads, natural stones of different sizes, shapes, and colors. 

In the center, mount the drop bead and then continue symmetrically.

To finish, cut 3cm of extension chain, thread a metal bead and the extension chain. 

Place the assembly on the table, making sure not to leave any space between the beads while keeping a flexible threading. Do not lay the threading in a straight line, as you risk creating tension between the beads when the necklace returns to its normal curved shape.

Insert a pin into the thread at the edge of the metal bead. Now make the knots around the pin to ensure that the knots are positioned correctly. Remove the pin at the last moment.

Pass the needle through the metal bead and through 4/5 beads. Cut the excess thread flush.

To finish, thread the starting thread through a beading needle and pass through a few beads before cutting the thread flush.

Your jewel is finished!

Beautiful creation!
