Instructions:
  1. Start by cutting a piece of black waxed cotton cord to a length of 34 inches.
  2. To prevent the cord from fraying when threading through beads multiple times, apply a small amount of nail polish to the cord's end. (Optional)
  3. Collect the following beads: Seven 10-mm CCB round beads, five navy cord-wrapped ball beads, two 4-mm metal beads, two 4-mm acrylic faceted beads (gold), one Oxidized Brass 2 hole metal spacer bar bead.
  4. Thread a 4-mm metal bead, a 10-mm CCB round bead, a 10-mm CCB disc bead, a navy ball bead, a 10-mm CCB disc bead, a 10-mm CCB round in that order onto the waxed cotton cord. 
  5. Repeat this pattern, excluding the 4-mm metal bead. Add one 4-mm metal bead at the end.
  6. Take an Oxidized Brass 2 Hole Metal Spacer Bar Bead. Thread each cord end through one hole of the spacer bar bead.
  7. Thread one 4-mm acrylic faceted bead onto each cord end.
  8. Tie a knot on each cord end to secure the beads and spacer bar.
  9. That's it! Enjoy wearing it or gifting it to share the joy of handmade creativity.​ ​​
