Instructions

      Place your beads in a sequence that you like. Create words and names out of the beads or just have random beads. Beads can be slippery so place them on fabric or a table cloth which does not blend in with the colors.

    • 2

      Fold your lanyard or string in half. Do not cut it or make the lanyard short.

    • 3

      Pull the folded part of the lanyard through the split ring until the split ring is in the middle of the lanyard.

    • 4

      Pull the two ends of the lanyard between the folded part of the lanyard. Pull it tight. The lanyard should make a knot on the split ring.

    • 5

      Slip each bead on the lanyard in the order that you planned.

    • 6

      Tie end of the lanyard into a loop. Take those ends again and pull it through the loop. Pull the lanyard ends tight. Repeat.

    • 7

      Cut the end of the lanyard.

Tips & Warnings

  • Use hot glue gun to make the knot secure.

  • Do not burn yourself with the glue gun.
