DIY Neck piece from a Lace

 Statement jewelry is in so much in trend nowadays. What if you can create your own on much cheaper prize with customized design? So here I'm sharing the same idea with you all. 



Material Required:

  • A soft wide lace (make sure it is not scratching your skin)
  • Material  for embellishment 
  • Beads 
  • Needle and thread
  • Golden or gold drawstring thread (to tie its ends around your neck)
  • Center of attraction, here I have used cowrie shells to add some quirkiness or eye catching factor, what I personally believe are perfect  for holiday vibes.
  • Two small bells, I have tied one bell on both ends to give that string some weight and it also give sound which is absolutely mood lifter for me.

Here I have listed all materials just to give an idea of making  a lace neckpiece, but you can add every  element according to your taste, preference and availability. 

Now let's move on to the procedure...
  • First of all collect everything what you have in a place and arrange every element or charm how you like to design, and click its photo to save the design for further  arrangement. 
  • Now see the things which will need fabric glue or stitching.  I would say you should  go for stitching first and then pasting.
  • Here I have stitched beads firstly then cowrie shells,

    followed by silver drawstring on the top of the lace and then tied two bells. And last I preferred  to paste small round mirrors. I paste them in last so that I can keep it to dry. The whole look and vibe changed after I added mirrors. The reflection of mirrors give a completely different look. I didn't add too much bead as they give a sophisticated look but I was looking for a boho-hippie vibes.


So, I hope you found this crafty idea cool and interesting. You can find me on Instagram to know more about updates and you can share your suggestions as well. Lots of love to you are sitting in this globe right now and reading this.

Much Love,
