Layered Necklace
The tutorial for this necklace was published in the Summer 2007 issue
of PolymerCafe.
NOTE:
I found out, that it's much better to use a cord that's a bit thicker
than I said in the tute. I used tigertail in the tute, but 2 mm buna
prevent the beads from reversing. If you like to use tigertail you
have to fill the space under the strip on the back with matching clay
(like I did with the end beads) and pierce it proir or after baking
with a small hole for the tigertail.
I restrung the necklace with buna;)
I sent the article to PCafe half a year ago. I wore the necklace a few times and had the problem with the beads reversing...so I decided to restring it

I cant wait to get my issue. This is a very pretty necklace and I have always wondered how the holes are made for stringing.

thanks all. Just a little note on the tute: I found out, that it's much better to use a cord that's a bit thicker than I said in the tute. I used tigertail in the tute, but 2 mm buna prevent the beads from reversing.
