Stacking Necklaces for Summer

How can I make some easy necklaces this summer?

The art of stacking necklaces is emerging as THE must-have jewelry trend of the summer season. This technique, which involves layering several necklaces of different lengths and textures, creates a look that’s both sophisticated and casual—perfect for sunny days by the water and summer evenings alike.

Whether you’re wearing a simple tank top or a swimsuit, layering necklaces instantly adds a bohemian and personalized touch to your outfit. Blue beads, gold chains, symbolic pendants like the protective eye or the pearlescent star: each piece tells a story and helps create a unique ensemble that reflects your personality.

The secret to successful stacking isn’t the number of necklaces you wear, but the balance between materials, colors, and lengths. Pairing a colorful beaded choker with a delicate chain adorned with a pendant creates a particularly flattering sense of depth, while avoiding a cluttered look.

This summer trend, which is all over Pinterest and Instagram, appeals to both fans of minimalist style and those who love to play with accessories. Easy to create and infinitely customizable, necklace stacking suits all body types and fashion styles, from a casual beach look to a summer evening outfit.

Tutorial steps

Step 1
Stacking Necklaces for Summer : Step 1

We'll start with the first necklace—the one made of seed beads. To make it, cut a piece of thread that's long enough; here, I used 50 cm to give myself a little leeway.

Next, take a crimp bead, thread it onto the wire, and pass the wire back through the same hole to form a loop. Flatten the crimp bead.

Step 2

Next, take your knot cover and thread both ends of the string through it. Make sure the crimp bead is positioned inside the knot cover, then flatten it.

Step 3

Now let's move on to the last necklace. To do this, cut the cord to the desired length—here, I cut 42.5 cm of cord. Next, take your Lobster Clasp with a round lace clip. Place the end of the cord against the clamp tip and flatten it using flat-nose pliers. Do the same on the other side.
