I just finished the 1st of 5 and am so glad I decided to do this myself. I have to purchase the Ribbon to tie them.
I spent:
$7 on glass pearls
$1.50 on the beading cord
$3 on the toggles
Which is $11.50 for 5 Necklaces and 5 braclets. That is amazing! To buy these I would have spent atlease $15 on each.
