natural pearls

Today, I made a natural pearl necklace. It was made from berries from the tree in my backyard! Here is what you need:

needle                                                        thread
seedless berries(not outrageously mushy)

Tie a knot in the thread and string it through the eye of the needle. One by one, push the needle through a berry and slide it down to the knot until the thread is full. Tie the ends of the thread together to form a necklace.

Other Ideas
If you are a perfectionist, experiment with different types of berries to find the longest lasting and best looking one. If you are more daring, though, mix different colors of berries and create a cool pattern with it. Your choices depend on the kind of person you are!
