Q.
How do I go from 2 strands of beads at the back of a necklace to 1 strand in the front?

A.
In addition to a two-strand clasp to bring the double strands from the back to front, you will need a set of components, such as a two-to-one link or bead that will connect the two strands and change it to the one as your design progresses.

![]() Double-Strand Links | Look for clasps and links with gemstones or Swarovski Elements that complement the necklace design, string the design on Accu-Flex® beading wire and use crimps, crimp covers and Accu-Guards™ for a seamless look of beads and metal components. |
