Leather Necklaces and how to make them??

Question

I'm in need of a website that shows step by step HOW to make a wrapped pendant/necklace (all in one) with leather cord...

I apologize I didn't explain clearly enough...it would be a stone that would be wrapped with leather (like you see with metal, simply) but the leather also makes the necklace itself and its adjustable...here's a pic:

I hope that helps a bit...thank you...

Answer 1

I get the impression that the necklace you aimed at is a kind of Monkeys-Fist.
There are several instructions on the web, but all will cover the stone (marble or whatever) completely.
You might be able to do like was done in the photo and just cover a part.

You can also use a Turks Head Knot round the stone, sometimes people make a border round a stone, sometimes they make a kind of cage.

Answer 2

ive not seen any wraped with leather pendants, however i have seen wire wrapped pendants on leather cord, and you can also cut and shape and carve and paint on leather to make a pendant, but it wouldnt have to be all leather. describe what it is you really are looking for and maybe i can offer more help. the picture didnt work but to wrap leather on a stone you would have to glue it to keep it in there, wire is so much easier, i used to get leather scraps from a small leather shop that made belts and purses and so on, they would sell bags of scraps for a few dollars and i made lots of goodies with them.

Answer 3

leather necklaces are great for hanging light charms, pendants or letter beads. All are 18" in length and 1.5mm in diameter except for black, which comes in both 1.5mm and 2mm diameters.
you can get them on

If you need a real life demo, I advise you to come to Calcutta, India in Park Circus area and see it yourself.
So, when are you coming?
