How to make a pearl necklace?

Making a beaded necklace is easy for anyone and allows you to create your first piece of jewelry in less than 20 minutes. It is a quick and rewarding creative activity. You can create jewelry that matches your outfits or make personalized DIY gifts for your friends. To achieve a jewelry store-quality result, you'll still need to know some basic jewelry techniques, so forget about tying knots on nylon wire and a ton of glue on that same knot that won't hold. Here are a few videos that will show you what you need to do to make this tutorial, we advise you to watch them before starting this tutorial. Don't worry, they only last one or two minutes each:

  • How to use crush beads?
  • What is the purpose of wire guards?
  • How to open and close a ring?

You can wear these necklaces separately or together. They each have their own clasp. The first necklace is made of polymer clay heishi round beads, mother of pearl beads including palet beads with letters, as well as gold beads and PureCrystal spinners. The second one is much finer and more delicate. It is made with tiny mother of pearl beads and a pretty rhinestone star pendant. The whole thing is enhanced by real African Turquoise beads, a type of Jasper.

Tutorial steps

Step 1
DIY duo of mother of pearl and PureCrystal necklaces : Step 1

Cut 60 cm of wire for the first necklace and 50 cm for the second. Thread 1 squeeze bead onto the first wire, pass the wire through the wire guard, thread the clasp and pass it through the loop and then pass the wire end back through the squeeze bead. You should have about 5 cm of wire end left.

Flatten the bead with the special pliers. Use the notch with a small tooth on the other side. This notch will flatten the bead by making a mark in the centre. Then fold the bead in half with the other notch. Check that the wire is well blocked. Do the same thing with the second wire.

Step 2

Close a crushable bead cover on the crushable bead for decoration. Start stringing green heishi beads on the necklace with the longest thread. Thread the thread twice through the beads.

Step 3

Bonjour, c'est la 1ère fois que je fais un collier avec un fermoir. Il me manque une étape à la fin pour savoir comment faire la fermeture. Et je ne sais pas quel matériel utiliser pour cela. Merci.
