The other day I came across a bag full of earrings that I wore 9 years ago.
They were all beaded and dangly; a style I no longer wear. I knew I would
never wear them again but I didn't want to trash them so I decided to
turn them into something I do wear often. Necklaces!
For today's Make It I'm going to show you how to attach an old earring to a chain to make a repurposed necklace.
Let's get started!
You will need:
chain
jump ring
an old earring
pliers
some earring pieces I dissembled
1. Open your jump ring and put your earring piece through.
*When opening your jump ring twist it open with your pliers. Twist them
where one will go toward you and the other one goes away from you.
2. Put your chain in the jump ring too.
3. Time to close your jump ring! Use both of your pliers to grip the
jump ring and twist it shut.
That's it! Now you have a new necklace from an old piece of jewelry!
It's that easy.
Hope you enjoyed this mini DIY!
Happy Making!
