Lace and Pearl Necklace


Supplies:  
Old Pearl Necklace  
Lace  
Thick thread  
Needle  

How –To  
Cut Three Feet of ¾ inch  lace.  
Grab old Pearl Necklace   (Large Pearls)  
And cut the string to free the  beads.  
Grab a needle and thread   
(I chose a thick white thread).  
Fold the lace into three sections. 
Pinch the lace at the start of the middle section  
and pull the needle through   the center of it.  
Add a pearl to the needle.  
Wrap the lace around the bead and loop it over.  
Pinch it to where the length of it covers   
the other half of the bead.  
Pierce the lace where you want the   
lace to hit the other side.   
Repeat  until you have a fair amount  
of beads in the middle section.  
 




Use the remaining lace on the two ends to tie the necklace on.   You can adjust the length by tying it tighter or looser. 































“…I’d rather help than watch. I’d rather have a heart than a mind. I’d rather expose too much than too little. I’d rather say hello to strangers than be afraid of them. I would rather know all this about myself than have more money than I need. I’d rather have something to love than a way to impress you”.
