This is something that I’ve been dying to make since I first began this blog. I’ve always loved the look of old, layered charm necklaces: keys, coins, crystals… there’s just something about the style that seems so mysterious and magical. And I just adore anything that is extremely distressed… the older looking the better! So I decided to go pretty crazy with the distressing on this piece. It might be a bit much for some peoples’ taste, but hey- you can always bring it down a notch.
I think the coolest thing about this creation is that you can quite easily change it to go with whatever you’re wearing; you can make alterate strands to mix and match into the spacer pieces. I want to make SO many!! Maybe one with a compass, a purple crystal? an hourglass? The possibilities are endless. If you guys end up creating this, PLEASE send me a photo on my twitter! It would make my day. And as always, if you have any questions, feel free to ask in the comments and I will do my best to answer!
I hope you liked this DIY! I want to slowly start moving into doing some “stranger” creations soon. When I first decided to make this blog, I had so many outlandish plans… however, I have yet to find the time and/or energy to execute them. But one day… ONE DAY, this blog will become what I had planned for it to become!!! hahaha :P But for real, I want to do some clothing DIYs, some complicated jewelry pieces etc. And then, most importantly, I want to build a “wardrobe” of these creations so that I can create outfits made almost entirely of things I created myself. SOMEDAY! *sigh* Once I get more into the groove with my videos and such, I will get there. So stay tuned!
