This crystal pendant is made with very basic knots and a bit of string- it's super simple!
I used embroidery floss and waxed it with a beeswax candle- that's optional and you don't have to wax it if you don't want to, but it makes it a bit more sturdy.
You can also use hemp cord, cotton cord, or pre-waxed thread. You'll just want the cord to be about the same size as 6 strand embroidery floss.
SUPPLIES YOU'LL NEED //
▶︎ 6 strand embroidery floss (I used DMC) in your preferred color- I used ECRU in the video: shrsl.com/32h9s
4 pieces @ 48" long (121 cm)
▶︎ beeswax to wax the thread (optional, I used a candle I had laying around): amzn.to/3xuaFKz
▶︎ wooden bead with a large hole (mine was about 5/8" long): amzn.to/3vjxIoR
▶︎ large eye needle that will fit through the bead: amzn.to/3uIGSfF
▶︎ scissors: amzn.to/38St75A
▶︎ tape, clipboard or cork board and T-pins to hold the necklace while you braid: amzn.to/3uGOTl1
▶︎ measuring tape
▶︎ assorted crystals! tidd.ly/3AQ8gJE

As an absolute crystal crow I sincerely appreciate this tutorial as I can now use this for all of my self protective metaphysical needs =]
Ikr!
I didn't know cell was into crystals
Thank you ❤ I’m young and can’t buy an expensive gift for my father on he’s birthday but I have some crystals and materials to create this. So I’ve never done anything like this before but the way you taught made it easier to accomplish making it. ❤🙌
You made an excellent, easy to follow video. I tried watching 2 other creators videos on this type of necklace and gave up yesterday because I kept getting confused on the second set of knots. Today, this video randomly showed up on my home page so I decided to give a look... the way you laid out the strings after each step cleared up any questions I had about what to do next so thank you very much. I liked and now subscribing.👌😊💚
Glad it was helpful! 😊 😊
It’s so refreshing to see such a well done tutorial , thank you ! it was perfect , both the necklace and the 10 min class I just attended lol
I am autistic and a crystal fanatic. I have been wanting to start macrame for so long and this video inspired me to do so! Thank you for such a clear cut, easy to understand turorial.
Ayeee autistic crystal fanatic buddies ❤😂
This is adorable, and so well made! I’ve never done macrame before (more of a crochet person tbh), but this is so clearly explained that I’m confident that I could make one. I’m excited to try this out with some crystal collecting friends!
I practically never start a tutorial without watching it first and for some reason I was following along as the video played (pausing to work the steps) and it’s perfect! My daughter has been after me to make her something for all the crystals and gems she wants to wear and this came out perfect! Thank you for taking the time to make this tutorial. Very easy to follow 😊
Thank you for this clean tutorial. I've seen others with too much going on in the background. My easily distracted self just can't 😅
Love this very much ❤ from South Africa
My brain could not comprehend this at first and you just broke it down for me so beautifully, thank you!
I wanted to craft something special as a gift for someone, by trying to include a rock I picked up somewhere we went and enjoyed a lot, and it was surprisingly simple to do ! Not "easy" because it was definitely a bit of a struggle at first, but after I got it I went with the flow and here I am with my little macrame necklace ready to be given 😎
Thanks for the tutorial !
I love that you can take the crystal out AND wear it. I always want to make sure the ones I carry are secure, but I don’t want to trap them! Thank you so much for this! 🙏
what a ridiculously genius idea! I'm gonna wear all my rock collection!!!! I love that you use threads, I have a nickel allergy and this is perfect for me. THANK YOUUUU!!
I use thicker hemp for mine because i use much larger stones but waxing and dyeing my own hemp is the fun part of the process! Definitely wax your own!
I made one with an 80 Dollar flourite stone this way. Added feather and cordage wraps. I wanted to sell for $120 but its wayyy to beautiful lol
Youre really good at this.
this was so easy to do, but took about 40 minutes. I used it for a little squirrel skull I have. thanks for the tutorial
Seriously thank you so much this is my very very first time making a necklace I've been putting it off and putting it off you made it so simple for me I will never forget this because it is my first video I've ever watched doing the first necklace I've ever done so thanks again😊
Third time is the charm!!😂😂😂 I had to slow down and make my knots closer together. Thank you for this very clear explanation!
I haven’t finished an actually good necklace, I have many failed attempts, but this is a really good tutorial! I’m sure I can make a good crystal necklace! :D
Thank you‼️
I learned a lifelong skill that I can pass on to my daughters and grandchildren what a wonderful gift sending you good vibes and loving support to help you continue to grow in your success as a content creator 🤍‼️
Thank you thank you thank you!!!!! I was buying these on Amazon but the sizing was inconsistent!! Now I can make them to suite AND customize for the particular stone dimensions!! ♥️♥️♥️♥️
I love this tutorial and am going to be making these for gifts. I have several sets of chakra stones that will be perfect for this necklace. Thanks, Crystal!
You are amazing! Best tutorial ever! You should be a teacher!
I subscribed after seeing the video. Concise, excellent. Thank you
So clever. I'm going to try to make this work with a peach stone heart that I have with no holes. Thanks for sharing. I love this.
Brilliant!! I always thought macrame was too tricky to learn... But you explain it so clearly I'm actually going to make a crystal holder 💕 thank you 🕊️
Thank you so much! I was looking for a diy to gift to my crystal-lover friends and this is perfect!!
Thank you for taking the time to teach and record a beautiful video. I hope you are always energetic❤❤❤
OMG!!!! This is exactly what I was looking for! Best video tutorial for this!! Thank you so much!!
Thanks for such a clear, easy-to-use tutorial. So many people overcomplicate these types of videos! I just found your channel searching for this exact tutorial; and I subscribed 😊.
This is exactly what I was looking for to make for my broken key fob to connect to my keychain. Thank you!
This is beautiful work of art and technique for making a very beautiful crystal necklace..
Thank you for teaching me how to make this kind of necklace! I've been wanting to learn and your teaching method is perfect ❤ I am very greatful!
ty for this video. I actually bought some of these. When I received them I was like I bet these are easy to make. I was right. 😂
He entendido poco tus palabras pues soy española, pero es tan gráfico q me ha encantado, llevo tiempo buscando y es genial. Muchas gracias 🫂🫂🫂😊😅😅
Thank you for this tutorial! I’m going to a Ren Faire with my friends soon and my necklace turned out amazing. I’m so excited to show it off :D
This tutorial is so easy to follow, I can't wait to try this! Thank you!!
i have just made one for my partner's birthday, worked out great! thank you!
I love these. I just started making the macrame cord necklaces.
I love this tutorial so much!! I prefer the look of this type of strand. Could you teach us how to make the end of the necklace adjustable?
Wow, thank you so much. You make it look so easy. I’m gonna try this tonight and see if I’m able to do it. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and technique.❤
Thank you for such an easy step by step tutorial.. soo cute! I’ll be making a few of these for gifts! 💜
Best tutorial for these I’ve seen!!
I have been trying to find a way to find away to wrap my gemstones without using wire as I am allergic plus the wire can scratch and tarnish
Thank you for sharing this video with us
Very much appreciated 🙏🌻🙏
Plus wire wrapping is sooo much more difficult. It's hard to make a wrap like this with rope look ugly (yet I still managed to make it look ugly) but with wire, it's so easy. Any misalignment with wire is so obvious.
Thank you, you are very clear. I was able to make a gift for my daughter.
I made one! It's a little wonky looking because I didn't do the knots as even as I could and my string was thread instead of embroidery floss but it turned out a lot better than I expected!!
Thank you soooo much! I really need one of these holders but wanted to make it myself. Yours was the very first video I clicked on and it's perfect! Thank you!
This was so simple and easy, I believe I can finally do this. Thank you so much!
Thank you! You make learning macrame so much easier. I’m going to use waxed hemp cord for mine. ❤
Thankyou so much for this tutorial!! I'm obsessed and have been making loads!! Much love ❤
Thank you for sharing this! Made my first one today. Very easy to follow.
great tutorial! i tried many other tutorials, but this one worked for me the best :) thank you 😁
Love this 😍😍💖✨!! Brb getting my embroidery thread
Great for disneys kyber crystals! ❤🎉
Thank you for making it simple, clear explaination🙏
Thank you for the video, this really helped! I like to put horse chestnuts in mine. (now that I found out it’s chestnut in english it’s kind of more magical and symbolical for me xd)
Great video. I found your instructions very easy to follow, thank you so much. 😊
Beautiful work 👍Thank you for the simple lesson.. Lookin😢 forward to wrap my Cristals.. Much Appreciated ❤😊
This is LEGIT! i'm doing it and actually have a stone i wanna use.😃😃😃
I bought one of these a week ago for a LOT of money and I just now found this video 🙃 never again
Thank you. This looks like a fun craft for the kids and myself 😊
Wax your thread is wise ❤️ Thank you ☺️
A great way to use the crystals I've collected. Thanks for the super neat tutorial!
I was wondering if a 3 strand method will work as well, that way the chords will be a regular 3-strand braid.
Simple but beautiful necklace thanks for sharing this tutorial
