I love hair necklaces, as featured in this post. I had wanted one for a while. They make a boring bun, top knot, or sock bun so special! But I figured, why buy what I can make?
I used this tutorial. And changed things up a bit. Here's what to do;
I used this tutorial. And changed things up a bit. Here's what to do;
Supplies;
Chains of varying style, shape, and finish
Jump rings
Wire ( I did use this at first, but eventually decided it was unnecessary)
Hair Comb (I had so much trouble finding one. I finally found one at JoAnn Fabrics!)
Bobby Pin
Pliers
Wire Cutters
Step One-
Cut your chains at different lengths, a little over half an inch difference will give you the draped look. I bought some chains, but also used two from necklaces that I didn't want anymore.
OLD Step Two-
Use wire to attach the chains to the Hair Comb by wrapping it around. Since making this hair necklace, I have decided it would look nicer, and be easier to just use jump rings to attach the chains.
NEW Step Two:
If like me, you think jump rings would look better, use pliers to attach the jump rings to the hair comb
Step Three-
Use the pliers to attach a jump ring to the other end of the chains.
Step Four-
Put a bobby pin through the jump ring.
And then you are done! Now you have a unique piece that no one else will have!
