This crystal pendant is made with very basic knots and a bit of string- it's super simple!

I used embroidery floss and waxed it with a beeswax candle- that's optional and you don't have to wax it if you don't want to, but it makes it a bit more sturdy.

You can also use hemp cord, cotton cord, or pre-waxed thread. You'll just want the cord to be about the same size as 6 strand embroidery floss.
