The necklace I had for measurement comparison was 18", so I planned 4 1/2" of plain seed beads on each side, with seven (odd number for better artistic balance) alternating colored star drops, each about 1" (or 16 size 11 seed beads) apart. I doubled the thread, slip knotted and extra knotted it to one end of the clasp, strung all the beads, and tied several knots at the end. I glued both knots with the model airplane/fake fingernail kind of glue I use on all bead knots.
