Make a statement with your Statement Necklaces on Display

Make a statement with your Statement Necklaces on Display

Do you have lots of beautiful necklaces, but forget about them in the clutter of other jewelry you have? Yes, I know, it happens to the best of us, but here is a super cute & decorative way to change that for good. 

Find old picture frames laying around your place, or go out a buy some, and you will have the first piece of this super glam puzzle. You can mix up the frames in size, color, shape and style, and cater them to wherever you're going to put them in your room. (You don't even need the glass, because you'll be taking it out anyway. 

Aside from the frames, you'll also need cork (cut to the size of your frame), a fabric/burlap to cover the cork with, and push-pins (either fancy or simple). 

To create these beauties, all you need to do is replace the glass part of the frame with the cork wrapped in your favorite fabric, reattach the back and start adding your jewels! Use the push-pins to secure them into the cork and layer/categorize however you want! 

This is a super cute DIY-hack brought to you by yours truly, Devoted Fashionista.

DIY Bracelet Hack Under $10

DIY DIVA ALERT! 

This jewelry hack that will have you running to the craft store now!

Layered and wrap bracelets are the newest trend, and you can make them yourself! The picture above is a combo of store bought bracelets (with the arrows) and DIY bracelets under $10, and now you're going to know how to make them. 

What you need to make this fashion statement happen: 

1) String of your choice - Pictured above is both colored knotting cord and a brown leather cord. This choice is up to you and the look you are going for. Dressy or casual, colors or neutrals, whatever your heart desires. Whichever you chose, make sure the beads fit. 

2) Gold noodle beads - You can find these beads at any craft store or bead shop. They're super fun to craft with and have a chic look to them. Make sure you chose a bead that has the right diameter for the width of your string. Usually the thicker noodle beads work better for this project. 

3) Gold crimps & fastener - You'll need the clamps to be able to attach the ends to the fastener and form the bracelet. I would suggest investing in a small set of jewelry pliers (especially if you plan to make more DIY jewels) because it will make your life much easier. 

After you buy all your materials the process is pretty simple: Make your DIY bracelets & flaunt your new set of arm candy everyone will adore. You can change up the color, width and material of the cord to add a different look. Also, I suggest to make a silver set and a gold set, so you can pair them with whatever color metal you're wearing. Mix and match these with other bracelets you already have to always keep it exciting!

These beauties can be dressed up or down, and can make all your friends wish they had your style.
