Nektar de Stagni

-
I came across these Nektar de Stagni necklaces and thought I would put it on my DIY inspiration list. The price tag for each necklace is quite expensive, so if I can find an affordable way to get something similar...why not?! Can't wait to start working on some of things on my DIY list. Although, I still have 5 job applications to complete. Hopefully, I can get it done by tomorrow so I can work on some of my projects!

    Haha. I want to finish beading one of my dresses, make my own leather clutch, fix one of my bags, make my own detachable collar, and one of these necklaces! Hopefully, I get to do one of these this week!

DIY: No-sew Leather Clutch

Kina Grannis - In Your Arms I was strolling around a craft store and noticed they sold pieces of 8.5"x11" leather for decent prices. I've been wanting to make a clutch for a while and I felt like this was the perfect material to work with. So I bought brown and black leather pieces as well as some leather cement glue. I also drew a sketch of what I kind of wanted it to look like... but in reality, it was just an excuse to use watercolor pencils. Things you'll need: -2 pieces of leather (size depends on how big or small you want to make it) -leather cement glue -scissors -binder clips -ruler -pencil/marker -scotch tape -paintbrush -something heavy, like a textbook or two

DIY: Peter Pan Embellished Detachable Collar

YES! I finally was able to accomplish one of my projects on my To-Do List. I decided to take a break from job apps and stop by the craft store yesterday.  I picked up some pieces of felt, which were on sale for 5 for $1! And I decided I would work on my DIY collar. This is what the finished product looks like and the many ways I decided to style my outfits with my new accessory: ( Note: You might think... really? You made a collage of yourself? I swear I am not vain and I really do not like taking this many pictures of myself but I thought it was a good way to show the versatility of the detachable collar!) For this project you will need the following: -A piece of felt -Fabric Glue -Some sort of embelishment (beads, sequins, buttons) -Scissors -Tape measurer -A wide paint brush -A needle and thread
