My new neckie...


I made a few of these necklaces as gifts, so I patiently waited until they were distributed before creating this post.
Thread Banger, an online video DIY network, taught me how to make these necklaces in this video.
How I modified: I skipped a lot of the sewing and instead cut up several strips of jersey T-shirt. Then, I stretched them taut until they rolled up, and gathered them at both ends.
How I fastened: safety pin for now. Still a work in progress. I gutted some of my old jewelry and tried to sew some claw-end fasteners to make it more necklace-like, but I quickly lost one end during a party.
