One of the best things you can do with a girl friend is get together, drink wine, and do crafts! Awhile back I did just that with my best friend Brittany. As her boys frolicked between watching The Voice and eating JELLO in the kitchen, we sat and crafted around the kitchen table. We had a glorious time doing this super cute Gold Tube Bracelet craft from Honestly WTF.

A few days later watching TV I saw a commercial where the actress was wearing a tube necklace. I thought it would be the perfect craft to use up a few extra tube beads. It makes a perfect gift, and will take you about 10 – 15 minutes max!

MATERIALS

• 17″ long 1.5mm leather string
• 1 – 40 x 2mm silver curved tube bead
• 2 – 6mm jump rings
• 2 – 10mm long crimp ends
• 1 – 10mm lobster clasp
• Jewelry pliers

INSTRUCTIONS

Step 1:

Take one end of the leather string, one crimp end, and using your pliers crimp it nice and tight.

Step 2:

On the end without the crimp end, slip on the silver tube bead.

Step 3:

Add the other crimp end to the other end of the leather string.

Step 4:

Using your pliers add one jump ring to each end.

Step 5:

The last step is to attach your lobster clasp to one end using your pliers.

That took all of like 5 minutes. Speedy crafting!
