June's Necklace of the Month

June's Necklace of the Month is.... the colored chain necklace, let's get started!
Level: 
Supplies: 
  • one gold necklace chain
  • 7 jump rings
  • pliers
  • 7 pieces of chain in various sizes
  • acrylic paint. spray paint

Start coloring your chains with paint or spray paint. Make sure to cover both sides.
P.S. File Folders make great paint palettes & craft surfaces.
While your chains dry, take your necklace chain, find the center link, and attach a jump ring to that spot.
Attach one of your colored chains to that jump ring.
Move a few spaces over and continue adding jump rings then a colored  chain to that jump ring.
I created a really cool pattern with the different colors and lengths.
Awesome!

    April's Necklace of the Month!


    April's Necklace of the Month is the Crochet Chain Necklace! Don't worry if you've never crocheted before. This is a very simple project that could easily be your first. To get started crocheting you will need some yarn, a crochet hook (I like size G & H), scissors and some patience. This pattern comes from Love City
    Level:
    Supplies: 
    • Yarn- not too thick & not too thin
    • size G or H crochet hook
    • scissors
    First, you need to know how to make a slip knot. Howcast arts & recreation has great videos.   
    You also need to know how to create the chain stitch
    And the single crochet stitch (sc). 
    And the slip stitch. (sl. st.) 
    Here is the link to her FREE pattern and below is the pic of my necklace using her pattern.
