How to make a paracord survival necklace

Beachwear Necklace with earrings made using paracord Hello Friends, Since my first paracord project till now, I have become very very Knotty...LOL. I mean it, I have been trying and experimenting with knots a lot, especially the decorative ones. I like to thank JD of fusionknots.com for his amazing book on decorative knots. Which had inspired me to create this jewelry set. I like to dedicate this jewelry set to a special friend who had always shown a great deal of interest in my jewelry projects and motivated me when I felt miserable. This necklace set is my original design and I call it beach jewelry because of the colors, beads and paracord (waterproof, strong....?). This necklace set is made up using several knotting techniques, which made it look so awesome and complex. Another interesting thing about this necklace set is that it uses only a few things to make up. Are you ready to get knotty... ha ha ha?.

Wide Paracord Bracelet First step is picking your colors. The optimal types are 2 colors that contrast. Also for your side release buckle I recommend a 1" size. This allows you plenty of room to insert the cordage. The 5/8" size I used just made it very tight to work with. To figure out how much paracord you will need, measure your wrist where you want the bracelet to sit at. The color you want as the outside one should be your wrist measurement times 12. Loop the strands onto your buckle using a cow hitch knot One tip is to make sure you keep the same pattern going and not switch which cord goes over and which one goes under.

Start by cutting a 10″ and a 15″ piece of bungee (or climbing rope). Lay the center of the twisted cord in between the two pieces of covered bungee, twist twice at the top of the necklace and bring both sides down to create a small loop. Wrap each glued section with mason line or twine and trim any excess twisted cord. Your Proenza Schouler inspired necklace is ready to wear! (top image from here, rest of images from Honestly…WTF)
