THH difficulty level 

What you’ll need:

– beads of choice with an opening that allows the fabric to go through

– excess scrap material stitched together to make a cord/belt

– sewing machine or needle and thread

1. Take the extra material and fold together so that the excess fabric and seams are covered.

2. Create a knot on the cord.

3. Add a bead

4. Tie another knot

5. Repeat until desired length is achieved

6. When complete, you can add other layers to make it a larger and chunkier.

7. Trim the edges and cover them using extra material. Stitch this neatly to cover ends.

1. Gather beads and scrap material

2. Tie a knot and send through a bead, secure it and tie another knot.

3. Continue until you reach the desired length and number of strands. I opted for three strands

4. Gather the strands and trim the excess strips. Use some material and cover the ends. You can choose to sew with a machine or even hand stitch it

5. Necklace/belt is complete!
