Leather Cords Jewelry Making Ideas

As a widely, commonly used stringing materials, leather cords can usually be seen in necklace making and bracelet making. These cords are available in a variety of colors, shapes, sizes and weaves.

Some people may think that using leather cords to make jewelry will limit their choice of jewelry beads because the cords will only pass through large hole beads. But there are actually a variety of ways to use smaller hole beads with leather cords. For example, we can use suede cord and pearl beads to create a necklace. Suede cord is lovely to look at and very comfortable to wear. We all know that the holes of pearl beads too small to string on suede cords. But we can use head pins and jump rings to attach them onto suede cords. Use the head pins to make a small loop on the top of pearl beads, and attach those beads pendants on jump rings. The diameter of those jump rings is large enough to string on suede cord. String those pearl bead pendants on the cord, and make some knots to fix them in place, of course, it just for your reference.
