I started with 6 strings of beads and a magnetic necklace clasp (all found on eBay)
Attach the one end of all 6 bead strings together using a end cap.
Braid the beads together using two bead strands in each part of the braid and attach the other end using an end cap just how the previous step shows.
Now using a chain (my bead strings weren't long enough to make the necklace the length I wanted) attach one end of the chain to the bead strings and the other to the necklace clasp. Repeat on the other side.
I loved the end result of this necklace and I can't wait to colour block it with different outfits.
