Aria decided that she would like a more elaborate necklace.Your Grandma's girl may agree!
You will need:
a length of silk covered cord or leather that will go around her head after it is knotted.
5 head pins
5 jump rings
11 beads

We start by threading the jump rings onto the cording.
This part is fun!
Then we bead the head pins with one bead on each of two head pins, two beads on each of two head pins, and five beads on the last one. It is so much fun deciding which beads to put where! Such decisions!

We lay down the head pins in the following order:In the center is the one with the most beads. On either side are the ones with two beads, and on the outside are the ones with one bead each.
Using a round nose pliers, we form loops on the top of the head pins.

Last but not least, we open the jump rings and attach the head pins to the jump rings. Then we close the jump rings and tie a knot in our necklace to close it.
And we are so proud of ourselves!
