  Step 1

  Cut off a decent length of string.

  Start by Stringing your first pop tab. Push this pop tab down your string until there's a 6inch tail left. Then knot the string around the pop tab to keep it in place.

• 

  Step 2

  Loop the string down through the other hole.

• 

  Step 3

  Grab another poptab and go down through the first hole on it.

• 

  Step 4

  Pull the pop tabs together until the holes line up.

• 

  Step 5

  bring the string up through the second hole on the second pop tab.

• 

  Step 6

  String another pop tab.

• 

  Step 7

  Line up the holes.

• 

  Step 8

  Repeat until you have the desired length of your necklace, then knot the last pop tab in place. It should look something like this.
  <-------

  Make sure to leave at least a 6inch tail on this end too.

  NOTE: Do NOT tie this tightly around your neck!!! Pop tabs do tend to have some sharp edges.

  You can always switch it up and make a bracelet or anklet.

Yes, I have thought of painting them. This was kind of a trial run to see if it would work.

That is awesome. I tried to make a bracelet this way ages ago but it completely failed. I was using elastic thread though, so I guess it wasn't rigid enough.
