Tutorial: Charming Necklaces

These cute little necklaces are so simple to make. You can look for tiny charms in craft stores. I found some in Hobby Lobby, but you could also repurpose some vintage jewelry.

Materials:

Small jewelry charms
Size 10 cotton crochet thread (black or other colors)
Scissors
Fray-Check

For the necklace cord, you can use crochet thread in any color you like. Black works well.

Cut a piece of the crochet thread, about 8” long.

Thread charm onto the middle of the thread and tie to secure charm.

Put the cord around the doll’s neck to check length.

Tie the ends together at the back of the doll’s neck. Use a square knot.

Clip off extra thread close to the knot and put a drop of Fray-Check on the ends.

If you don’t like the length, cut the cord and try again. Make an extra necklace for a friend! Here are the girls with their necklaces made by Aisling.
