MORSE CODE JEWELRY  
 

By Carol “Beetle” Osada

Use any two contrasting colors of E beads.  For these instructions, we will use black and white as the two contrasting colors.  Begin stringing your beaded message from the end of the beading wire (or use fishing line) that is attached to the lobster claw clasp.  The message always begins at the clasp. 

To begin your message, string 5-10 white beads.

DOT =  1 black bead.

DASH = 3 black beads.

Space between dots and dashes = 1 white bead.

Space between letters =  3 white beads.

Space between words = 5 white beads.

To end the message, string 5- 10 white beads.  Add a split ring to the
other end of the necklace.

 Message on Necklace Shown in Picture:
"Do not cry because it is over, smile because it happened."
