A quick trip to the discount store + a few odds n’ ends from around the house =
this fabulous bit of frippery!
Here’s how you can make a (silly) statement with my DIY animal necklace:
Get your hands on some little plastic creatures, a gaudy old necklace, pliers, wire & a mini-drill (or dremel)
deconstruct the necklace & add the tackiest bits to your stash…
re-construct the best bits of the necklace & choose your plastic victims…
drill a small hole straight through your pendant-sacrifice(s)…
slip a jump ring (or bit of wire) through the hole(s)…
attach to your new necklace & delight in your kooky new accessory!
Zebra-Tiger-Anteater Awesomeness
If you don’t want to skewer your animals, simply wrap ’em with wire…
loop it around your necklace and trim off the poky ends – et voila! An ultra fast giggle inducing trinket that can easily revert to its former self with a quick (un)twist of the wire.
…but this one is my favourite:
Wheeeee!
