DIY Wooden Tassel Necklace

sweater & jeans: old navy   sneakers: target

I saw this necklace a few weeks ago and loved it, but couldn't handle paying $37 for it.  I figured it wouldn't be too hard to make my own version.  All together it took me less than two hours and I love it. 

copy: $37   diy version: $12
Supplies: string, wooden beads, thicker string/rope for necklace, spray paint
I spray painted my beads similar to this tutorial and forgot to take a picture.  I only did one coat.

String your wooden bead and then another tassel and keep going until you want your 
colored beads to start.  I made eight tassels. 
I used a wooden bead at the end, tied a knot around it, then made a loop on the other side to 
make a closing.

And that's it! I now would like to spray paint a ton more beads and make a million more tassels.
