labradorite and black druzy necklace

Measure and cut two 20" [50.8 cm] pieces of clear transite cord. Set one piece aside.

At about 1" [2.5 cm] from an end, tie the transite cord onto a close, tiny jump ring. Tie a surgeon’s knot for an extra secure hold and add a dab of glue to the knot.

Thread 1½" [3.8 cm] of matte Gold beads, 4¾" [12.1 cm] of striped black agate beads, 2" [5.1 cm] of matte Gold beads, 4¾" [12.1 cm] of striped black agate beads and another 1½" [3.8 cm] of matte Gold beads.

Tie the end onto another closed, tiny jump ring. Add a dab of glue and tuck ends into the adjacent beads. Trim if needed. Set this strand aside to allow the glue to dry.
TIP: The finished strand should measure about 15" [38.1 cm], including the tiny jump rings.

Repeat Step 2 with the second transite cord.

Thread 1" [2.5 cm] of matte Gold beads, 4¼" [10.8 cm] of Labradorite chip beads, one matte Gold bead, one striped black agate bead, one matte Gold bead, 2" [5.1 cm] of Labradorite chip beads, your black agate pendant, 2" [5.1 cm] of Labradorite chip beads, one matte Gold bead, one striped black agate bead, one matte Gold bead, 4¼" [10.8 cm] of Labradorite chip beads and 1" [2.5 cm] of matte Gold beads.

Repeat Step 4 to finish this strand.
TIP: This finished strand should measure about 15½" [39.4 cm], including the tiny jump rings.

To assemble your necklace, open a 6mm jump ring, thread a tiny jump from an end of each strand and close.
TIP: To open and close a jump ring, simply grasp the jump ring on both sides with chain nose pliers and twist the ring open, from side-to-side. Never pull the jump ring which can cause distortion.
