TIPS:
For a 3-strand braid, cut three times the length of beading cable as the finished length. The necklace pictured uses three 18" pieces of stringing cable.

The designer laminated two custom collage images to create a reversible necklace.

The heart portions of the heart-shaped toggle clasps are used as a design element.

Weave the flattened long and short chain through the rings of the flat-ring chain.


See our Beading Cable Technique Sheet for stringing instructions.
