Look at this lovely beaded tassel necklace I made over the weekend with my friend Amanda. We’d both been thinking about tassels recently so she decided to host an afternoon of making over the weekend. I think it took about an hour or so from start to finish, and the beading was the most time consuming part. I love small projects like this, with quick results.

I bought myself the tool pictured above, called Loome, which is a multi-purpose tool for making tassels, pom poms, and other small textile projects. Check out more information about it on their website. I’m about to embark on a tassel making kick, because you can never have too many, right?
