I have to admit to being frustrated
with commercial choices in necklace cords. Not only is it nearly
impossible to find any over 20 inches long to use for displaying pretty
gemstone donuts as pendants, but so many also have sliding knot ends
that come untied or crimp ends that pull off. I wanted a simple,
affordable satin necklace cord with easy lobster claw clasps in
different metals to display pendants. This satin cord is 1.5mm wide. It is slimmer than the standard 2mm cord so that it doesn't overpower your pendants. I currently can make these in three different satin cord colors.
 |
| My black satin necklace cord comes in many lengths and three different clasps metals so you can get just what you need. $6 |
 |
| Silvery grey cord necklace with shell donut $12.50 |
 |
| Brown cord with turquoise donut $15.50 |
 |
| I can make these in copper plated, gold plated or silver plated |
 |
| Since I make these myself, I can do custom lengths |
 |
| Get just the right length for you. Any length $6. |
 |
| I heat seal each end, loop it over and sew it with strong thread and then cover it with hand wrapped wire coils turning the ends of the coils down to anchor them in the satin cord. |

I love the way you display all the different lengths of cord. Very nice.

Beautiful! They can be casual or elegant depending upon donut. :D
ReplyDeleteI think I'm going to have to get one:)
ReplyDeleteEnjoyed this post very much! It is always a joy to find a color or jewelry element that allows creativity and versatility in the art of making jewelry. Your necklaces are lovely!
ReplyDeleteWhat a good idea. Can you make them without the ends so I can thread beads on and do the end up myself?
ReplyDeleteHannah, I could certainly do one where I only finish one end and give you the parts to finish the other end yourself after you string beads on.
DeleteLove the way you finished these! Nothing worse than frayed ends on a necklace cord. Very nice!
ReplyDeleteSue, I love that you do all the finishing by hand. They beautifully showcase the embellishments you chose.
ReplyDeleteIt's great how you explain your process.
ReplyDeleteIt makes your items seem closer to home, somehow, as if the customer gets to know a lot more about your items and the security expressed in a strong, hand-finished piece. It makes all the difference.
Those are beautiful! I love how you have a great photo to show the lengths, too. Gorgeous work!
ReplyDeleteYour necklaces are so pretty. That is great that you have so many different lengths to fit each customers likes.
ReplyDeleteYour jewelry is very lovely. I very much like that turquoise! And I think it is fabulous you offer different lengths.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great post Sue, very informative about what you can offer us, thank you. Blessings Niki x
