Instructions

    First you need all this things.As you see,there are 2 types of shells here the flat one and the involoute ones.About line.I have seen it only in sets,but it can also be in craft shops.Ok,let's do it!

  2. First,cut some of the line(measure your hand,take about 5 extra cm).Next,start stringing the shells(in order you want).Include different shells.

    String the clasp through the line and tie it for four or more times so it won't break.IMPORTANT!When you are tieing push the line through the ring of clasp.Do the same with the other part of the clasp(including pushing through the ring and tieing for more than six times).Here how the tied back looks like(picture).Cut the unnecessary line
