DIY Necklaces

http://www.sweetspot.ca/ is Canada's Sweetest Lifestyle Guide and I get their emails everyday telling me about restaurants, shopping, gift ideas and events. One of my creative outlets is jewellery making so this video was one I clicked on right away. I thought I'd share it with you. Jewellery making is fun and you can create your own styles rather than depending on what the stores have available.



This video shows you three versions of the open necklace that requires minimal tools and skills but gives you three new necklaces, in whatever styles you choose.







Enjoy!
