A gift for my Sissy...

Recently my baby sister, who by the way is definitely not a baby any more which makes me feel sad and old,  sent me a picture of a necklace she liked to get my opinion. So I thought I would suprise her while she was out of town and replicate it for her for half the price :) See what ya think...

The Original...


My Replica...






Cost Break-Down:
Fabric for Rosettes (1/4 yard).............................................$1.50
Chain for Necklace (still plenty left for more creations) ..............$4.00
Clasps for necklace (pack of 90 pieces)...................................$4.00
Buttons for embellishment..................................................$5.00
Hot Glue gun + glue sticks...................................................free; already had

Total ...........................................................................$14.50

Not too shabby, especially considering I still have enough supplies to make a minimum of 5 more necklaces. All I would need are more embellishments! I pretty much love how it turned out!


Hope you LOVE it Annie Bananie!!

P.S. We need to remedy the fact that this is the only "recent" picture I have of you, and it's been over a year since this was taken :(
