DIY Cord + Bolt statement necklace. My friend Tawnee is all about DIY hardware (new term I learned from her a few days ago), and as we all know…the hardware store is a is one of the best places for inspiration and diy supplies. With jewelry in particular, I love the metal look, feel and heaviness, and I have quickly found out how inexpensive and easy it can be to make (yet it looks expensive).

Just a few bolts and such here, some whatnot there and bam…something that feels quality and looks pretty. I love it. This necklace Tawnee designed in particular is such a pretty piece, that is simple and edgy. And can be worn with a tee or a dress. It has great versatility and options with potential to paint the bolts or do some bright neons for the cording. Supplies: bolts (openings that will fit over cord doubled) in any variety and amount 50″ or more of cording (there are all kinds of colors and sizes-may be fun to do 2 colors) matches or lighter hook scissors Instructions: 1. 7.
