lariat necklace a go go

[carenj]

Can you give more detailed instructions for this necklace.  I don't really understand how the loop is made for the pendant.
thank you

[Polly]

The pendant is attached with a loop of seed beads.
(Slide crimp bead into Beadalon, but don't crimp it. Add enough seed beads to go around the top of the pendant, go back through the crimp, crimp it, then make the rest of your necklace.)

I will see if we can get a zoomed-in version of that picture linked into the gallery.
You can *almost* see what's done there, but not quite.

Hi for Lariat, usually how long does it measure? and how its usually worn?

[Polly]

Hi Damon, there are many variations.

They are usually one long strand.
The ends can be tied in front, or can be sent through a loop that is at the middle of the strand, or -- depending on the weight and friction of the components, can be simply tucked through the middle of the long stand.

To see a few styles, search our Design Gallery for the word "Lariat", and click on the thumbnails to view the full-size images.
In the Spiral Galaxy Lariat Necklace and the Lariat-a-go-go, the long end chains are slid through the large ring (or go-go pendant), rather like very long toggle clasp.
In the Dragonfly Lariat, the central portion is a regular dragonfly toggle clasp.
In the Amethyst-Glass Lariat Necklace, the strands can be tied in a single knot when worn, or you can fold the strand in half, and then bring the ends through the loop formed by folding the strand in half.  (This style needs to be long, at least 36".)
For the Rhythm & Blues Lariat... it's hard to describe without an image.  Click through the gallery links, to get to the Designer Tip Sheet (a PDF file) for a description of how the loop was made with cording.

Well, I can’t see any necklace on this page….perhaps you have forgotten to post it or the page is taking too much of time to load.  In either case, I’m sorry I can’t help you.  
Guys I have just purchased this necklace, isn’t it beautiful?

wow. Very sweet. What are the flowers made from?

The gallery is a bit unpredicable for linking, so here is a direct link to the "Lariat Necklace a-Go-Go" image.
