The inspiration for this idea came from a necklace I found at Madewell. I loved the tribal look of it and, in studying it more closely, I realized it would be simple to create my own version. Here is their “earth and fire” necklace, which is on sale now here for $19.99 (down from $45):
Here are the materials you’ll need:
* Gold metallic spray paint
* 80 metal washers
* Simple chain necklace
* 5 Black Beads (metal or wood)
* 80 metal washers
* Simple chain necklace
* 5 Black Beads (metal or wood)
To recreate
Step 1: Spray paint the washers gold on both sides (make sure you spray at an angle so you get the edges too) – let dry.
Step 2: Thread one bead onto your necklace, then a group of 20 washers, then another bead, etc…mimicking the pattern above.
Step 3: Wear it!!
