Peace and love Creative Souls! Welcome back to another handmade jewelry tutorial available on my youtube channel where I'll show you how to create a DIY Reversible Bohemian Wooden Necklace! This is an exclusive DIY tutorial that you won't find anywhere else! With these unique and versatile 2-in-1 necklaces, you can create a varied collection of pendants with limited supplies, in order to match any outfit. To top it off, I've added beautiful citrine and quartzite crystals that not only add aesthetic beauty, but also add some soul healing. Quartzite crystals are known for balancing and stabilizing positive change, while Citrine crystals are renowned for being effective success and prosperity stones. For additional healing benefits, you can adjust the length of these wooden crystal necklaces to be worn at chest length in order to activate the heart chakra, or below the bust line to activate the solar plexus chakra.
For this DIY craft, you will need assorted wooden shapes that can be purchased from a Michael's arts and crafts store, or you can try these oval shapes that already have holes drilled into the tops, saving you precious time and effort. You'll also need your preferred cotton cording (preferably less than 3/16") and large wooden beads. I used plain wooden beads for this craft, but you can try to spice it up Bohemian-style with these beautiful wooden beads. You will also need two flat nose pliers, one set of round nose pliers, 22 - 24 gauge wire, and of course, a relaxing environment to maintain your creative flow. If you'd like some inspiration regarding how you can create your very own creative space, watch my YouTube video here. You will also need acrylic paints in your desired colors for decorating your pendants, as well as small brushes and some Mod Podge sealer to help your necklaces to repel water and stains, and last a long time. Now that you have all your supplies, head over to my YouTube channel and watch the tutorial to learn how to create your fully customizable, reversible Bohemian style wooden necklaces! Have fun, and as always, I send you peace love and inspiration from my heart to yours! -The Bohemian Gem
