Getting Started
This daisy chain necklace is simple enough for beginner beaders to master, and beautiful to boot.
Skill Level
- Beginner
Materials
- Green seed beads, 11°
- White seed beads, 11°
- Yellow seed beads, 11°
- Orange seed beads, 11°
- Purple seed beads, 11°
- 2 silver eye pins
- 2 silver end cones
- 2 silver jump rings
- Silver S-hook clasp
- Beading thread, size D
The number 11° expresses the number of beads that fit on one inch of string, in this case eleven. If you’re shopping at a bead shop, it’s pronounced, “eleven-oh.”
Tools & Supplies
- Beading needle, size 11
- Clear nail polish with nylon
- Scissors
- Round-nosed pliers
- Wire cutters
The nail polish is used to glue some of the knots and beads. Make sure to use a brand with nylon in it (the type used to strengthen nails). Regular nail polish (without nylon) uses a chemical that could melt the bead thread or damage beads. Nail polish with nylon is pretty common and easy to find.
Finished Size
- Approximately 16" (40.6 cm)
