Instructions:

  1. Cut a 20" length of dark brown faux leather suede cord.

  2. Fold your above length of cord in half and feed the end that is folded through the hole in the owl pendant, going from back to front. Pull an inch through and then feed your cord tails through the loop in the front. This is called a Lark's Head knot and can be seen in more detail in the video HERE.

  3. Apply a 3mm antique brass fold over crimp to each of your ribbon ends. If you want, you can add a bit of glue to help secure the ribbon.

  4. Open the loop at the base of one half of your barrel clasp and attach it to one of your fold over crimp ends. Close the loop. Repeat on the other side of your necklace.

  5. All done!
