Learn how to easily make a stylish eyeglass chain in this PotomacBeads tutorial. The Funky Eye Glass Lanyard is a fun project for Czech glass and a stylish way to keep your glasses at hand.
1. Cut a 30-inch length of stainless-steel beading wire. Put a bead stopper at the end of the wire, leaving a little bit of a tail. Choose a bead that you can fit the wire through twice and put that bead onto the end.
2. Watch the Funky Eye Glass Lanyard tutorial to follow along with Anna as she shares some tips and tricks with you to create your own unique eyeglass chain.
3. Pick up a crimp bead and 7 seed beads. Bring the wire through one side of the eyeglass holder. Take the end of the wire back through the crimp bead and the last bead in the pattern. Pull the seed beads into a loop and use pliers to squeeze the crimp bead shut. Repeat on the other side.
