Good Karma Necklace

Our project this month is a simple, stylish necklace strung on ribbon. We call this a Good Karma necklace, as we used a glass buddha bead for the center, but you can use just about anything that is about 1/2" long to dangle in the center of the ring. Enjoy!

Materials

1 Large Geometric Ring Charm w/top and bottom hole

2 1.5" Headpins

2 6mm Jumprings

1 6mm 5301 Bicone

1 4mm 5301 Bicone

2 Spacer Beads

1 Glass Buddha Bead

1 Yard Ribbon

Tools

Chain Nose Pliers

Wire Cutters

Round Nose Pliers

Step One

Attach 1 Jumpring to the geometric charm, then add the second jumpring to that jumpring.

Step Two

Place Buddha bead on a headpin.

Step Three

Make a simple loop over the Buddha and attach to the second jumpring you attached to the geometric charm.

Step Four

Place crystals and spacers on second headpin in desired order.

Step Five

Make a simple loop over the crystals and attach to the bottom hole on a geometric charm.

Step Six

Thread ribbon through the first jumpring that was attached to the geometric charm. This will force the Buddha bead to fall into the center of the geometric ring charm.

Finished Product

Simple and easy, attach a clasp or just tie a knot in the ribbon.
