I ordered some specialty glass pendents from jamesp for gifts to those attending our upcoming family reunion. Here is a small part of the selection he sent.
I have a lot of fishing line, so I am cutting into nose to fingertip lengths, a simple knot, push a loop through the hole, feed the other end through the loop, done. Recipients can do more with them later. I think we are going to have a lot of happy relatives!

The blue cord looks good with the colors in the glass!

You will make your people happy with this surprise. At the same time, I'd like to see the fish that this line intended to catch.

Those look beautiful Dave! One note though, be careful with that braided line. It is VERY strong and also cuts skin quite easily. (I know from fishing accidents). Be sure none of the recipients work where there can be a necklace entanglement issue.

It is harder to find good colors on smooth lines, but I'm looking. It doesn't look as good, but safety tops looks.

I use 1/4" diameter cloth ribbon for pendant display.
Use the magnetic clasps for lanyards and some bracelets. Different magnetic clasps have different strengths. Some are pretty wimpy.
