Things I Make

  I had been coveting over the Snake Orb Pendant from Stella & Dot, but I really couldn't justify spending $79 for it when Christmas and everything else was coming up. 



However, I couldn't stop thinking about it and every time I would put on a simple outfit, I would think: "Awe that Stella & Dot necklace would be so perfect right now..."  Well, over the weekend I decided to do something about it and make my own version of it.  I want to Michaels and bought a 24" circle chain, some fancy clasps, and a few jumper rings.  The crystal pendant I already had from an Etsy purchase a few weeks back (I must have known).  Put them all together and this is how it turned out:


All for about $13


Now I'd say that was a bargain.

What type of DIY projects do you like to create?

Materials:

Chain: $4
Clasps: $4 (box of them)
Jumpers: $2 (box of them)
Chrystal Pendant: $3 (for two)
Total: $13
