It's WISE to DIY: Thrify Ideas for the Do-It-Yourselfer

You Won’t Believe That These Beautiful Gold-Dipped Necklaces Are DIY

I am don’t think I have left the house without a necklace (or more usually, necklaces) for about 20 years.  They are by far my favorite accessory and I could never have too many.

As someone who has a necklace obsession, I was shocked to find this post by Gina-Michele that gives a simple tutorial on how to make something that truly looks refined and EXPENSIVE.

I would highly recommend making a batch of these because you friends are going to want them and they will make incredible gifts! I mean, c’mon!  Look at these! GoldDippedNecklaces7 The supplies you will need are:

Jasper beads
Gold leaf pen
Tape
Eye pins
Jump rings
Silver chain
Lobster closure

Don’t worry if you do not know that some of these items are.  Your local bead store can walk you through.  In my experience, bead store staff are usually more than happy to help–they love this stuff more than anyone!

To get the full instructions on how to make these beauties, see our article and image source at gina-michele.  Please post pics of your creations!
