35.jpeg (494×700) DIY: Brighten Up Your Jewelry With Neon Thread! When it comes to accessories I’m in a bit of a neon crazy lately – I love this editorial from Cosmo Australia that I saw on Oracle Fox and set out to create lots of fun, laid-back-surfer-girl-style accessories that look awesome when layered heavily like the photo above. And before you go thinking you need to buy a bunch of supplies – I spent $0 on this DIY!
