Neon




I really can't get enough of neon. I've been wearing these neon chevron earrings all Spring and had to make another neon accessory for my wardrobe. Not only is this DIY project so easy to make, but you probably have most of the supplies at home. Grab a few straws, add some paint and paper and you've got a stylish and funky necklace. It's really that easy! Best of all, the gold spray paint gives a heavy, metal chain look and only you will know what's really hiding underneath!

Get creative and craft up a matching bracelet, earrings or ring. Follow the steps below to make your own one-of-a-kind piece of jewelry.



Materials:
• 3 Straws
• Gold Spray Paint 
• Colorful Paper (tip: look for interesting prints from a magazine. I reused pages from an old Bloomingdale's catalog)
• Tacky Glue
• Needle & Thread

Steps:
• Spray paint straws. 
• Cut an inch or two off, depending on how big you'd like your triangles to be.
• Fold them into a triangular shape and insert one of the ends into the other to close.
• Attach paper to each triangle with glue.
• Run needle & thread through the back of the necklace to connect the triangles.

DIY Macrame Bracelet

Posted by  on 
Growing up by the beach in Southern California, the ability to knot a macrame bracelet was practically a right of passage. Although those days are long behind us, we’ve never forgotten the ever-so-simple square knot technique. This time, however, we’re replacing hemp and wooden beads for more updated elements like colorful nylon cord and glossy metal charms. Happy knotting!

You’ll need:

Start by cutting the knotting cord into two 30 inch, two 20 inch and one 10 inch lengths.  Fold the 20 inch piece in half, pull the loop through the ring, fold it over the ring, and pull the rest of the cord through the loop. Repeat the step on the other side of the ring. These strands will be anchored and remain stationary.
Center the 30 inch cord under the two middle strands. Fold the right cord over the middle strands and under the left cord. Pull the left cord under the right and middle strands and through the loop on the right side.
Pull tightly and slide the knot up to the top.
Finish the 2nd half of the square knot by folding the left cord over the middle strands and under the right cord. Pull the right cord under the left and middle strands and through the loop on the left side.
Pull tightly and repeat the steps – left, right, left, right . . . Continue knotting until the desired length is reached. Keep in mind that the clasp will take up approximately half an inch.
To finish the knots, thread one of the cords onto a needle and sew up the center of 3-4 knots along the backside. Pliers will help pull the needle through the tight knots.
Repeat the same step on the other cord.
After sewing up both knotting cords, trim away any excess. Save the scraps and melt the tips with a lighter to seal it for extra hold. Repeat the same exact step on the second half of the bracelet.
To make a sliding closure, shape the bracelet into a circle and overlap the middle strands. Use scraps to temporarily tie the cords together at each end.
Take the 10 inch cord and center it under the strands. Start tying square knots exactly the same way the bracelet was executed.
Stop at about half an inch and sew the knotting cords into the backside of the closure. Remove the temporary ties.
The two sets of middle strands are now the adjustable ties of the bracelet. Adjust to fit the wrist and tie each end into knots. Trim away any excess.
Your adjustable knotted bracelets are finished!! xx
