AMAZE Your Friends With This Boho Necklace Tutorial

Don’t you love it when a project looks really complex but is actually quite easy to make?  That’s how it is with this necklace.  Make it and all your friends will be oohing and ahhing about your great jewelry making skills and you can just smile and nod.

I’ve made a couple of boho inspired necklaces recently.  The first one was this amazing necklace that I had been asked about for the longest time.

Then I made this beautiful turquoise necklace which I’ve worn so much already, and I’m wearing in the video.

As I love these two necklaces so much and I got such a great response to my last two boho inspired necklaces it was only natural that another one had to come.  This time, I’m using some red teardrop beads and some snail beads.
