Floral Broach Necklace
Two things I love, the color Coral and large statement necklaces. To get the best of both worlds I took one of my old bracelets added some new beads and got a great new summer necklace.
Old:
- Broach from a Target Bracelet
- Lobster Clasp, stolen from an unused necklace
New:
-Coral glass beads from BeadMonkey 3 strands for $24
Project Time: 1 Hour
Total Cost: $24
Strands: Thread the strands 1/3 full, then thread through the broach. Complete adding beads, the strand closest to your neck will require fewer beads, 2 more for the middle strand, and 2 more on top of that for the outer strand.
Clasp: Using needle nose pliers I stole the lobster clasp and chains from an un-used necklace and attached with the thread ends. I'm planning to wear this necklace with turquoise and purple for a great summer look.
