The Bold & the Beautiful

This week on my blog, I'll be showing you the Tadas! I made
from the blahs found in this bag of scrap.


Here's a peek at what's inside.

Today I'll be working with the gold brooch & faux pearls
and I added a chain to the mix (purchased at a craft store).


Glue the pearls on the brooch &
attach the brooch to the chain...


Tada! a beautiful necklace delivering a bold statement!

  2. I love DIY crafted jewelries such as this. It’s much more valuable to me than any other machine made jewels.

  3. another winner, Claire! yes, i could try my hands at it but but but... ok i'm just too full of lame excuses now. i've tried to collect scraps for experiments but the project just never took off. i'll be content to just watch and drool here :)

  6. Very clever! I like it a lot. I don't wear broaches but find many beautiful ones at thrift stores and yard sales. After seeing this, I won't pass up a pretty broach at the next yard sale!
