<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n This is so quick to make, you can have a new necklace to wear to work today!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n I was inspired to make these DIY Rhinestone Cord Necklace’s after seeing them in Lucky magazine. <\/p>\n step 1<\/strong><\/p>\n Measure out your cord.<\/p>\n For the purple cord (the shorter one) I made mine 20 inches.<\/p>\n For the orange cord (the longer one) I made mine 29.5 inches.<\/p>\n If you are not using end caps and you are folding your ends over, add an extra inch to the length of your cord.<\/p>\n step 2<\/strong><\/p>\n Once your ends are cut, use a lighter or a candle to \u00e2\u20ac\u0153burn\/melt\u00e2\u20ac\u009d the ends of your cords. This will keep your ends from unraveling. Please be careful!<\/p>\n step 3<\/strong><\/p>\n If you are using end caps:<\/strong><\/p>\n Place a small amount of glue inside your end caps.<\/p>\n I used Aleenes Jewel-it glue, so it needed to sit for about 10 minutes before adding the cords.<\/p>\n Once your glue is ready push the ends of your cords into the end caps. Push them in as far as you can.<\/p>\n Let dry.<\/p>\n step 4<\/strong><\/p>\n If you are not using end caps:<\/strong><\/p>\n Fold the ends of your cord over about a half inch and put a small amount of hot glue on the end to hold them.<\/p>\n Hold your folded cord with your fingers until the glue is dry.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n step 5<\/strong><\/p>\n Add your brooch.<\/strong><\/p>\n If you are using the end caps, slide the pin from your brooch through the holes on the ends of your end caps.<\/p>\n If you are not using end caps, slide the pin from your brooch through the loops on your cord. <\/p>\nPUT A PIN ON IT ><\/a><\/h5>\n

\nThis is such a simple idea, but it gives a big impact.<\/strong> The combination of the colorful cords with the rhinestone brooches is very unexpected and interesting.<\/p>\n
