One of my very favourite craft blogs is S
ew Much Ado and my very favourite part is the
We Did it Wednesday link party where everyone posts what they made! I get many of my ideas from this link party. On Wednesday this
necklace was highlighted and I knew I had to try it out - a different kind of craft for me to do.
If you ever did Boondoggle (see below) as a kid at camp (or in my case, day care) ...you could easily do this project!
See - it's very similar.
The tutorial on
Yellow Blackbird is very easy to follow - I think the ribbon used in that one may have been better than my choice. A ribbed ribbon would be less slippery and make for a more unified looking accordion.
I'm not sure it goes with every outfit as Yellow Blackbird's author claims...I felt I needed to dress in a plain outfit so the necklace would be the attention seeking piece....but I know many others could rock this on a daily basis!
