Beat The High Street – A Woven Pearl Necklace from TopShop.

For this months ‘Bead the High Street Challenge’ we chose a woven pearl necklace from Topshop.

The High Street version was made using plastic pearls and chain. We decided gave ours more punch, combining sprayed glass pearls with a large gold ‘Belcher’ chain. The pearls are woven through each link using Chinese Knotting cord or ‘Shambala’ Cord.

For a playful summer look, try choosing thread that clashes with the bead colour. Citrus and Neons work best, but this versatile design can be adapted to suit any style.
