How to making beaded jewelry such as necklace?

 Beaded jewelry is very popular in recent years and how to make beaded jewelry such as necklace is very simple for reference.
Here are some steps for your project of beaded necklace making.
First prepare the materials or findings and beads for your making. Choose the thread which is fit for your necklace, and make it longer than your expect. Also, you should make sure you have enough jewelry beads and supplies, including spacer beads, tools, turminators and etc.  You will also need a clasp and two bead tips, which are used to secure the ends of your necklace so that the clasp can be attached.
Put your beads in a box for providing them rolling off. Think about your design befor making, and make sure the beads you prepared are fit for your necklace.
Knot a thread end and use scissors to trim off the excess thread. The knot should be at the very end of the thread, but not so close that it runs the risk of unknotting.
Push the unknotted end of your thread through one open end of the bead tip and thread it through the hole. Pull the thread all the way through so that the knot you made rests firmly against the hole.
Place a small amount of craft glue on the knot to keep it from coming undone, and allow it to dry.
String your beads and then thread on the other bead tip so that the open end of the tip faces away from the strung beads Charms or pendants with cute owl
Tie a loose knot in the thread end and use a long, straight pin to push the knot down into the open end of the bead tip. The knot should rest securely against the hole. Trim the excess thread and use pliers to close the bead tip.
Affix one clasp piece onto one bead tip hook so that the loops at the end of each are joined. Use the pliers to close one ring over the other. Repeat with the remaining clasp piece at the other end of the necklace.
This is all the procesures for making a beaded necklace. And you can also make differnt necklace by different beads or findings. But the making process is all the same.
