This video gives helpful hints for how to easily make really professional looking eyeglass chains. Easy enough for beginner beaders. Great gift items. Kits with all of the materials are available at www.turquoise-stringbeads.com.
The length really depends on the individual's preferences, i.e., where does she want her glasses to lay on her chest when not wearing them. Some people prefer higher positions because if the chain is too long the glasses swing and knock into everything. Also, a person's size is a factor. We'd say anywhere from 13 to 18 inches is most common. Hint: take a tape measure and wrap it around your neck, look in the mirror, decide what length you like best, and go for it. In any event, enjoy!
