DIY Seed Bead Fringe Necklace

Today’s jewelry tutorial is brought to you by the Darice Design Team. Brush up on your bead work and string together seed beads in bold patterns to create the fringe on this fun piece. This DIY seed bead necklace can be customized with Darice’s wide selection of seed bead colors and sizes. We used size 10/0 beads for this project for a more delicate look. If you use a thicker jewelry chain for the necklace you can go with a larger seed bead to balance it out. Read on to find the step by step instructions and the supplies needed to make your own DIY seed bead necklace with fringe.
