If I can tie a lariat, so can you!


I confess!  I have had these lariats in stock for at least six months and to date have only created one design with them.   Well, all that just changed when I ran out of excuses not to play with something that turned out to be so simple!  I know you will have fun with it too!

Since a picture is worth a thousand words, here is a pictorial essay on creating fabulous looks with your Pandora-style beads for a price tag you will love!


Let's begin:

1.   Choose a lariat.  This one is black and 100 cm long.  It also comes in five other fabulous colors.   Fold it in half.

Turquoise

Brown
Hot Pink
Purple
Mint Green






2.  Slide a bead on as shown above.



3.  Add a few more.  Include some spacers if you like.  Make it colorful.  Glass beads, even just a few,  add pizazz!



4.  Tie the knot.  It's a simple double knot.  Adjust it so that it fits the desired length on your neck.  Make sure it is tied tight enough not to slip open.  It might take a few tugs, but believe me, this is NOT rocket science.























5.  Here ya go!  Double-knotted and ready to wear!!  

LARIATS ARE $10.00 EACH
GLASS BEADS ARE $8.00 EACH
GOLD SPACER BEADS ARE $3.50 EACH
