Discover the Shimmering Aura Necklace Kit—designed to welcome new makers and satisfy experienced braiders with its straightforward, elegant design. This kit features two beautifully contrasting beaded ropes, each crafted using an ever-adaptable technique: beaded kumihimo! One rope is braided with dazzling fire-polished beads for a touch of sparkle, while the other is composed entirely of seed beads for a smooth, contemporary look. They come together seamlessly with magnetic endcaps hidden under peyote stitch endcap covers.
Our detailed, step-by-step instructions make this kit exceptionally beginner-friendly. And for those who know their way around kumihimo, you'll be able to kick back and relax as you braid up this gorgeous necklace. Multiple stringing charts let you customize the length of each section to achieve your ideal fit.
You can even wear the fire polish braid as a bracelet, if you like! The kit contains enough materials to make this section up to 9" long and that will fit up to an 8" wrist. (Of course, the instructions include the stringing charts for other sizes as well!)
✔ Beginner-Friendly: Clear instructions and a video demo for making the peyote stitch endcap covers ensure an easy start.
✔ Customizable Fit: Use our stringing charts to fine-tune the length of each section for the perfect necklace.
✔ Balanced Design: A carefully crafted project that delivers an elegant, wearable piece without unnecessary complexity.
Ready to create a stunning necklace that you can proudly wear? Grab your kit today and start or continue your kumihimo journey with confidence!
These kits are suitable for braiders of all levels, but if you're a beginner please consult the Beaded Kumihimo Starter Guide before you begin your project. These are both free PDFs on our website. You can also watch our Beaded Kumihimo Quick Start Guide on our YouTube channel.
