Easy DIY Projects:Leather Fringe Tassel Necklace

Today I have another easy diy project for you it’s a leather fringe tassel necklace. As mentioned in my other jewelry project I consider myself a novice but, with using tutorials or trying along with practice anyone can do this! I have to admit this is one that I modified from a tutorial I saw. Last week I shared how to create a leather fringe necklace on an antique copper chain but, today’s tutorial is even easier! The tassel is attached to a leather loop that’s knotted.

I have worked with leather before in summer camp when I was a kid. Did you? Did I ever tell you that I found out that I met the Mr. at summer camp when I was a kid and I didn’t even know it till I was an adult. Crazy right? That’s a longer story for another day. It’s funny how people and opportunities come your way when your least expecting. Ever since I had the chance to dabble with these supplies I’ve been making more jewelry projects. I thought you might enjoy this DIY leather tassel necklace.
