Fabric Covered Beaded Necklace

I saw this necklace on Pinterest and loved it's beautiful simplicity.

Inspiration



Supplies
  • Long strip of fabric
  • Beads of 3 different sizes
  • Needle
  • Thread
  • Matching fabric for ruffles
  • Scissors

Cut your strip of fabric so when sewed into a tube it will be slightly bigger than your largest bead. Mine was about 1.5 yards long. Then, sew a seam down the strip to create a tube.


Now, add a bead and push it to the middle and tie a knot on each side. Keep adding beads switching sizes and tying knots. 


Cut your extra fabric into circles. Mine were 1.5 inches in diameter.


Fold your circles and sew them to the necklace in a bunch to create a ruffle look.


Now you have a beautiful necklace on the cheap!
