You Will Need (12 things)

  • Grey Hama Beads
  • Black Hama Beads
  • Red Hama Beads
  • White Hama Beads
  • Hama Bead Board
  • Hama Bead Ironing Paper

  • If Using Embroidery Thread

  • Embroidery Thread

  • If Using Chain

  • Necklace Chain
  • 4 Necklace Hoop
  • 1 Necklace Clasp

Steps (7 steps, 90 minutes)

  1. 1

    Create your hearts with hama beads.
    The pattern is linked in the attachments :p

  2. 2

    Iron your hama beads. (I like to iron on both sides so it's stronger and less likely to break)

  3. 3

    At this point you can just use some embroidery thread, measure it out and tie it on either end on the hearts or use chain and make it a proper necklace which is a bit fiddly.
    (You can also just cut an old necklace in half and attach that to the hears)
    If you're using the chain carry on reading.

  4. 4

    Measure out a long piece of chain around your neck and cut it to your desired length. Then cut that in half.

  5. 5

    Attach a necklace hoop on both of the pieces of chain and then on one of the hoops attach a necklace clasp.

  6. 6

    On one side of your Hama bead hearts attach a necklace hoop and link it to one on your pieces of chain.
    Do the same on the other side.

  7. 7

    Then, hopefully, you should be done!
