It was my project over the weekend, that I would create a necklace. I used to create jewelry back in high school and it was a wonderful hobby. I have decided to take it up again, because it allows me to still be creative, away from my computer. I’ve realized that because I am so highly creative, I have to constantly be creating something. When I am not, I get bored and start to feel complacent.  I’ve been like this since childhood and find it to be a good trait.

I bought most of the supplies for the necklace on Amazon and they arrived within 1-2 days of ordering. Although I do think that certain supplies would have been cheaper at a craft store supplier. But, nothing beats free shipping and saving gas to drive to the store.

The project took me a few hours only because I was just learning how to use headpins and creating loops. But once I got the hang of it, things started moving pretty quickly! I used a white see through ribbon to tie the necklace together, which in turn makes it very comfortable to wear.
