This project is not only a fantastic way to explore your creativity but also an opportunity to create a unique and personalized piece of wearable art.

Contents
Materials You’ll Need:
- Base fabric (felt or linen)
- Iron-on interfacing
- Embroidery threads in assorted colors
- Pendant bezel setting
- Embroidery hoop
- Embroidery needles
- Scissors
- Fabric glue
- Chain or cord
- Jump rings
- Clasp
Step 1: Choose Your Design
Begin by selecting a design for your pendant. Whether it’s a whimsical illustration, a floral motif, or a geometric pattern, let your imagination run wild! Sketch your chosen design onto the base fabric using a pencil or fabric marker, ensuring it fits within the dimensions of your pendant bezel.
Step 2: Prepare Your Fabric
Layer your base fabric with iron-on interfacing to add stability and structure. Place the fabric in an embroidery hoop to keep it taut and secure while you work. This will help ensure smooth stitching and prevent any distortion of the fabric.
Step 3: Stitch Your Design
Thread your embroidery needle with your chosen colors and begin stitching your design onto the fabric. Experiment with different stitches and techniques to add texture and depth to your pendant. Whether you prefer satin stitch, backstitch, or French knots, let your creativity shine through!
Step 4: Finishing Touches
Once you’ve completed your embroidery, carefully remove the fabric from the hoop and trim any excess fabric from the edges. Apply a thin layer of fabric glue to the back of the fabric to secure it in place.
Next, place the embroidered fabric into the pendant bezel setting, ensuring it fits snugly. Use fabric glue to secure the fabric to the setting, then allow it to dry completely.
Step 5: Assemble Your Necklace
Thread a chain or cord through the loop on the pendant setting, adjusting the length to your preference. Attach jump rings and a clasp to the ends of the chain to complete your necklace.
Step 6: Admire Your Handiwork
Congratulations! You’ve created your very own Embroidered Necklace—a beautiful and unique piece of jewelry that reflects your creativity and craftsmanship. Admire your handiwork and wear your necklace with pride, knowing that it’s a one-of-a-kind creation made by you!
