The Timeless Treasure Necklace Instructions is a downloadable PDF. Nothing will be shipped to you. If you want to print out the instructions, you'll need to have a printer. You'll have access to the download after you checkout. You'll need Adobe Acrobat Reader in order to open the file. The PDF is three pages long and includes two step-by-step photos for making the necklace and six diagrams for making the peyote stitch endcap covers.
Finished length options: 20", 24", 26"
This is not a kit. No materials are included.
The Timeless Treasure is a wardrobe staple that complements every outfit. It's equally at home with jeans and t-shirt or a nice dress. There's a wonderful textural contrast between the elongated, faceted Czech glass beads and the smooth seed beads. You'll finish your necklace with coordinating peyote stitch endcap covers.
Timeless Treasure is a beginner-plus / all-levels project, and assumes you already know the basic kumihimo skills:
- how to thread a needle
- how to tie an overhand knot
- how to set up the disk for braiding
- how to string beads
- how drop beads and lock them in place in the braid
Please download our free Beaded Kumihimo Starter Guide as a reference for these basic skills.

- Superlon Micro

The "Pattern Only" option is best for independent beaders either working from their own stash or willing/able to search for their own materials because we do not provide vendor recommendations nor color names/numbers. The supply list is on the first page of each project PDF and includes the type/size of each required component as well as the required quantity. The quantity may be listed as a range if the instructions include stringing charts for multiple sizes. If you would prefer to purchase a complete kit that includes both the instructions and all the materials needed to make a project, please reach out. Depending on stock availability we may be able to make you a kit even if that project isn't currently listed as a kit on our website. (There is a "Contact Us" link at the bottom of this page.)
