How To: Make a floating illusion necklace

Those interested in learning how to make their own jewelry, can learn how to make a floating illusion necklace by following the steps in this video tutorial. You will need a beading board, beading wire, crimp beads, beads of your choice, a barrel clasp, wire cutters, and crimping/flat-nosed pliers. First measure out how much wire you will need. The tutorial is making a 16-inch necklace. Make sure to cut extra wire. For a 16-inch necklace, this means you should cut approximately 20 inches of wire. In the next step, lay out your bead design and then attach a clasp to one end of the wire using a crimp bead to keep it in place. Next, string your beads onto the wire using crimp beads to secure each bead in place. Continue this until you have used all your beads and you will find that you have created a floating effect with your beads.
