Let’s get started!
DIY Silver Tassel Necklace
Supplies~
- Recollections Craft It Rope
- Crochet Thread or other string thread
- Cousin Brand Silver Cord Ends
- Large Silver Plated Bead ~Michaels
- 1-2 inch Silver Eye pin
- Silver toggle clasp
- Hot Glue & Gun
- Jewelry Pliers, round nose, and smooth
- E600 Glue
Instructions~
Make the Rope Tassel:
Cut a 10-inch piece of Upholstery cord. Unravel the cord and separate the layers. I used only one section. Smooth out the fibers.
Place a 4-inch piece of crochet thread in the center of the cord and tie tightly in a double knot.
Fold the tassel in half and pinch the tassel tight at the knot.
Add E6000 glue to the inside of the silver cord end. Insert the tassel inside the silver cord cap. I used a sharp stick to push it inside so it will be nice and snug.
Let it dry. Maximum-strength bond for this glue is 24 hours.
Insert a 2-inch eye pin inside the bead.
Trim off the excess wire with the jewelry pliers.
Curve the wire around to make a loop using the round-nosed jewelry pliers.
Hook the loop to the tassel and then pinch the wire shut.
Attach the other end to the toggle loop on the rope.
Make the Rope Necklace:
Cut the rope to desired length of necklace, approx 20 inches. Mine is 18 inches finished.
Add the ring part of a toggle clasp to the rope.
To attach the ends of the necklace without using a clasp, I decided the best way to do this was to wrap the ends.
You could use more silver end caps and make a clasp for this necklace
Place the ends next to each other and place a strip of hot glue about 1 1/2 inches to bond the two ropes together.
Then wrap the ends with crochet cording, tie it off, and hot glue the ends down.
Trim the rope ends and attach the tassel.
Trim the tassel across the bottom and that’s it!

Hi,
Love your site, these DIY look great and I love the different types of tassels!
I’m craving for some white accessory. This looks perfect for a picnic style day! Thanks for sharing.
I love this! I’m usually not a tassel girl. These though! They ideas are so fun and cute. My favorite are the beaded ones you mentioned though. This has to go on my project list. Consider it pinned!
Oh thanks so much for sharing! My favorite ones are the beaded ones too… I have two more posts coming up with leather tassels. So stay tuned!
