STEP 2

Line up two brass rings. Cut a 12 inch piece of cord and connect two rings by wrapping around them 4-5 times.

STEP 4

Now for the crafty trick - take a lighter and burn the tips of the knot until the nylon starts to melt. Then immediately press the bottom of the lighter against the melted tips onto the backside of the wrapped cord, sealing the knot.

STEP 6

When the pendant of the necklace is finished, cut two 40 inch pieces of cord. Fold a piece in half, pull the center loop through top of the upper right ring, fold it over the ring and pull the rest of the cord through the loop.
