Diy choker (90s inspired)





You will need: waxed cord, beads/charms, jump rings, a lobster clasp, pliers, a tape measure, an extender chain (optional)

 1. First up measure around your neck to determine what size you need the choker to be and cut a length of waxed cord approx. 2" longer than you want the choker to allow for knots
Tip! If you're making it as a gift go by your measurement but add an extender chain to make it adjustable
2. Take one end of your waxed cord and knot it onto a jump ring
3. Thread on any beads/charms, then knot the other end of the cord onto a jump ring
4. Trim off any excess cord from the knots and if you wish add a small blob of glue to secure - this may also help to prevent fraying over time
5. Use pliers to attach a lobster clasp onto one of the jump
rings. If you want to add an extender chain, attach this to the other jump ring and your choker is ready to wear!
