Beaded Necklace made with Tigertail
You will need a piece of tigertail the length you want your necklace to be plus about
6", 2 crimp beads, clasp of your choice and a selection of beads.
Thread a crimp onto the tigertail, through the loop on your clasp and back through the
crimp.
Push the crimp bead close to the clasp and squeeze the crimp firmly with flat nosed
pliers.
Thread on your beads.
After the last bead thread on another crimp, now thread the end of your tigertail through
the loop on the other end of your clasp, back through the crimp bead and through a few
beads. Now pull the wire until the crimp is close to the clasp and squeeze the crimp with
your pliers. Snip off excess tigertail with wire cutters.
finished!
Neclaces with multiple strings of beads can be made by using a multi string clasp or
attaching more strings to a single clasp.
